How can I download a file to my preferred format. For example, in the PC version of Firefox, I can save/download some mp3 or media files by simply right-clicking on the download link and choosing "save as..." in the options. Then afterwards, I can save to my preferred format in the "save as dialogue box". How can this be done in the androids version. I use a Samsung note 10.1 by the way.

On Android we use the system downloader, so your downloads go into the common Downloads interface. The choice of which application opens a download is left to the usual Android app picker.
