Ever since YouTube has been banned for the West Ada school district, I have been trying to find a way to listen to music on my school computer. Then I found Windows Media Player. I had looked up how to download songs on it and tried it, but it didn't work. How do I get my music downloaded and ready to play?

    If you want to download music from the Internet, then Windows Media Player is not the app to use, you can get many portable music players that can be run from a USB drive that would allow you to download and play music on the PC to bypass that restriction.

    Hi Lil'

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Windows Media Player is a very old player and does not have the ability to download music from sites like YouTube.

    Yu indicate you want to download your music, is that form the Internet, or from a USB drive or from CD's?

    Is there anything like Windows Media Player that allows music downloaded from the Internet? If not, what kind of portable music player are you talking about?
