Ok i downloaded a couple albums and then i opened it with winrar to decompress them and before winrar opened it said i had to pay for the original version because i had a 40 days trial and then when i try to extract the files it says i cant because the files are not found or w/e....  anyway it sucks because i tried on my computer and on my laptop and both didnt work so any idea what it can be and also other ways to download an entire album without using winrar???

You answered your own question. Don't use winrar to download. Use winrar to play.

I don't understand your question then. Please use correct terms and explain better.

Alright I don't know if I understand the question correctly but I'll try to answer it by how I download music with WinRAR. What I do is I have a file called WinRAR Music, then I extract all the music I download with WinRAR to that folder (hence the name). Once you have extracted you music there, drag and drop the mp3's to your iTunes/whatever you use to play music.

I don't know if this will work, but I hope it helps.

You should be able to just drag what you want from the WinRAR archive to where you want it... thats how it works for me.
