Problem opening music file--mp3 'not recognized'

Could someone please take a look at explaining crashing music? I've never had this problem before. A few months using a Mac, PowerBook G4.

http://www.thebrothermachine.com/music/brother machine - all the time.mp3

This file won't open in iTunes (and many similar ones from the same site). Perhaps they are all encrypted? QuickTime plays them in my browser, but won't recognize the files once downloaded. iTunes just doesn't respond. Any help please? Knowledge?
 
The '.mp3' file was downloaded and successfully played on 'iTunes', 'QuickTime Player', and 'VLC'. Three other .mp3' files were also downloaded, and they too played as the first.

The files are not encoded.
 
Thanks alot...I'm very experienced or so I thought, but further check showed that each download only downloaded the name and 4kb of song. Huh. Restarted Firefox and computer, but still happening? Any ideas please?
 
By right clicking (<control> click) on a random number of the above web site's music files - the randomly selected browsers 'Camino', 'Firefox', 'Flock', 'Internet Explorer', and 'Shiira', in addition to 'Safari' (used in the first reply), all downloaded the music files properly.
 
Huh wow...thanks for the time put in. I somehow got one song to download, everything else still the same? Will keep trying to download quality free music on other computer, and see if anything happens.
 
Update: dunno how the site is formatted. My solution now, is getting songs to open up in different tabs/windows, and 'save frame as'. Other saves don't work, regardless, have the songs now, excellent.
