Can i add Download Counter to it
Please help me

Hi - I'm using Woocommerce Product Tables to display MP3s. These are priced at 99p for individual downloads or a customer can purchase a subscription that gives a 100% discount on all downloads - so making them free. I want these subscribers to be able to click download and they instantly download - rather than them having to be taken to the checkout for each download. Can you help?

Cheers, Brad
