Shopping on the WRPM website is based around a familiar 'Shopping Basket' system. You simply add and remove items to and from your 'basket' as you move around the shop. Once you've got the items you need, simple click on the 'Proceed to checkout' button - then (and only then) will we ask for the details we need to fulfil your order (including payment - explained below).

Cds, tapes and books are arranged in categories, and you'll know exactly where you are throughout the store because of our easy to use navigation system . You can search for title, artist or description.

How to pay

- payment using on-line credit card purchase

Listening to the music clips
Some products have a sound clip of one of the tracks available for you to listen to. You will see this symbol when you can listen to a clip. Some albums have more than one clip and you will see this: 1 2

The sound clips on the WRPM site are RealAudio files. They can be played by any program recognising .ra and .ram files but the most common is RealPlayer (or RealOne as the new version is called). Please ensure that you have the latest version from http://www.real.com/. There is a free version of this software available.

When you click on the symbols your browser may ask if you wish to download the file or open it from the current location. Choose 'Open from current location'. The clip will then play and the track information will be displayed in RealPlayer/RealOne. If you cannot see it click 'View/ClipInfo' from the menu.


Troubleshooting

I click on the clip but nothing happens
Do you have RealPlayer/RealOne installed?
Is it the latest version?
Try making sure the RealPlayer/RealOne program is open before clicking on the clip.

I click on the clip and RealPlayer/RealOne tries to open it but freezes
Close any programs that you have open other than your web browser and try again.
Try restarting your machine.
Try playing other clips from other sites. If you cannot play these either then you have a conflict or faulty configuration.
Try uninstalling all versions of RealPlayer/RealOne on your machine and reinstall the latest version.
