Under the file menu, I choose "Save as ..." while the mp3 is
playing. It acts as if it's saving it as an mp3, it shows up where I
save it as an mp3 (with the .mp3 extension), iTunes will even
recognize it as an mp3, but the file size is always just 4kb and when
I go to play it it's empty.

I do the same thing with Firefox and it's fine.
