I don't want you to play that. Stop doing it. I don't care if you come packed with codecs to play web videos. There is no fucking "save as" option on the fucking right-click menu. Fuck. Even when I go into the preferences menu and tell you save mp3s as files, you fucking ignore it. I just get your stupid player, and then I have to drop into a terminal window and wget the fucking thing. Why is the fucking option even there in the preferences if you just fucking ignore it?? Even when I go into about:config and disable everything about playing media, YOU STILL PLAY MEDIA INSTEAD OF SAVING IT! I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN TO PODCASTS IN MY MOTHERFUCKING BROWSER! I want to download them to my device and get on with my life! Motherfucking get it together Firefox!
I tried using Chrome but the adblock really sucks.

@OP
Right click the page, select "view page info" then at the top select "media". In the white box select the .mp3 link, and then hit the save as button just below the links.
That should work. Alternatively you might be able tell the plugin what to do in your add ons/plugins page.

No, I have to click and then ctrl-I for page info and then save when the player comes up and then "save as".
It's a motherfucking mess.

Well obviously you like watching ads and you're a tool.

Sorry, I'll take this to the FF forums. I just really needed to vent to anyone who might take me seriously, because the FF forums sure as shit wont.

Who are you talking to? You're insane. Stop trying to download that mp3. It's not going to work. Firefox just runs you in circles, and Chrome just gives you ads. It's inevitable. You are doomed.

If you can find an address to slurp the file via wget or cURL, then fine, but just give up on trying to have actual links to anything you want to hear.

Yeah, It's been fun. I just was really pissed off about what Firefox devs have been doing. I'm glad you were here to tell me that my feelings mattered.

I'll try. I actually have installed a script to wget my podcasts now. It appears to be working.

Firefox just seems to have lost it lately. I tried putting Firefox on my tablet and it turns out Firefox for Android, regardless of your device's graphics capabilities, insists on displaying all images in 16 bit thousands of colors mode with dithering and banding like it's 1997 or some shit
