No way to download mp3 in Edge?

[freethinker112]

Whenever I go to any audio file, it just opens in Edge and I can play it just fine but can't save it. There is no such option in the ellipsis menu. Tapping and hold on the audio gives me an option "Save audio as" but tapping on it doesn't do anything. Is there no way to save an audio file? I am a big WP fan but small things like this annoys me to no end.

Has this been fixed yet? It's kept me from moving over to 10. The idea of having to download an extra app( of course no one ever suggests a good one when they tell you this) or downloading to computer and transferring through either cable or OneDrive is asinine

I don't know about mp3, but in Windows phone 8.1 I used Pocket File Manager, it allowed you to download pdfs and stuff from emails by selecting to open with it. Maybe it works too with mp3s...

Sometimes this is the case on Edge on Windows 10. from few websites it downloads mp3 and in few it just plays audio. May be there are some websites which do not allow to do so..

I tried other browsers,and whenever I tried to download a file it redirected to Edge and did the same thing
