wget for mp3s on mac terminal - help!


This is a pretty basic command as we all know, but I recently got a new Macbook Pro. I'm running wget just as I did on my previous macbook, and it's working fine. I can mirror my pages and get my jpegs, etc, etc. For some reason, for the life of me, I can NOT get mp3s!

When I try to grab the mp3s from my mp3 sources (stereogum, pitchfork), it keeps going into index.html. this is killin' me. here's my code:

wget -P wgetted -r -p -nd -t5 -H -domains= http://www.stereogum.com/ -A.mp3 -erobots=off

Is there anything wrong with this code? Why will it only go into index.html. Makes no sense to me, maybe this is just some stupid mistake, but it makes no sense. And in case you're wondering "wgetted" is just the name of the folder i'm putting everything into.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi
I do not know stereogum but you should tell first where you want to download the mp3
and what the names of mp3s are.
For example:
Code:
wget http://www.download.com/some/folder/mysong.mp3
may be you have to give an user-name and password.
Code:
wget -user=username -password=yoursecret http://www.download.com/some/folder/mysong.mp3
