Download from html5 audio tags

In HTML5, is there a way to load the current song into an audio tag? I feed him the octet stream that he plays, but the user cannot directly download the song from the link. Is there a way to allow the user to download a song that is playing? Audio is displayed as transparent, so the user will not be able to make a simple right-click + save as. Can you encapsulate sound in something that preserves as ability? Or maybe some kind of JavaScript can do the trick?

You can use the link if it is not streaming audio. If it is broadcast live, I don’t think you can download it in a browser because it does not have a final file size.

If this is a problem with the name of the download file, you can use the header content-disposition. It should be like this:

content-disposition: attachment; filename=playing.mp3

Adding this to the header should not affect the streaming of the audio tag.

If a sound is made, it means that a sound file is present.

You can even link to an audio file and it should work.
