I'd like to save this mp3:

http://www.nhk.or.jp/lesson/english/lesson1.mp3

Is there any way to do this instead of it playing in the browser?

Depending on what browser you have, just right-click that link you just made and do "Save linked content as..." or whatever it is called in your browser.

If you are using linux you can open a console window and do

wget http://www.nhk.or.jp/lesson/english/lesson1.mp3

not to be nasty but if you know how to use linux and a shell, you have already figured out saving files :) – bryan Aug 8 '10 at 17:54
@bryan: Not necessarily...there a lot of people out there who figured out how to install Linux but still have no clue about anything. – Bobby Aug 8 '10 at 18:22
installing linux, yes, being familiar with the shell and where to find files created/edited from the shell...i don't think so. – bryan Aug 8 '10 at 19:51
@bryan: Yeah, I know. Just figured I could throw it in there :p – Svish Aug 9 '10 at 10:58

Right click on the link. Select "Save Link As...". Choose a destination

Right click on the link you provided, click "Save Link As..." and save it where you want it.

Some browsers call it (Save Target As...).
