    You can use HTML5 tags, like video or audio . It’s fairly easy to customize. See this example.

    Be aware that old browsers don’t support HTML5 and that you need different versions of the files for a couple of browsers. It’s all explained on the linked sites.

    What you are doing now is using the a tag to link a file. This will not embed the content in your website, but opens a player on your computer.
