There is a quite obvious download button on the right side of the song's page that looks like this:
You have to download the song to your hard drive and listen to it on your computer. CTG can't stream the songs live because it doesn't host the songs here on the server.

Actually not, when I click the download button I click "listen in media player" instead of download. Sometimes the link leads to a webpage where I can stream it (like MySpace)

When you click "listen in media player" the file is still download to a temporary folder on your hard drive then loaded into your media player. Yeah. I win.  |

if you wanna save that song on your hard drive, after clicked the "Download" button, on the link of the popup just RMB click the link and select "save as..."
Some sites haven't download function, so you have to listen in streaming, but with a bit of patience and capacity you can record the streaming with a audio-editing software like Audacity.
PS: Some songs are in tracked format (if they have an extension like .XM or .IT) and cannot be listened with the normal WMP. So you have to use a module player like XMPlay or ModPlug Player.
Hope this help you.

Tip: don't take it for granted people know your favourite acronym's for stuff...
RMB means "right mouse button".
WMP means Windows Media Player
Otherwise, a sound piece of advice Mr. CDE.

Thanks, Mr. redheat. 
But CDE isn't an acronym (no Common Desktop Enviroment, just the three notes of the informatic music penthagram)
And it's possible that some people dosen't know that simply informatic acronyms?!? 
BTW, next time i'll post non-acronyzed posts (if some people is really ignorant about computers...)
