Thread: Downloading Music

    Downloading Music

    Can anyone tell me what they think is the best available music download service?

    I don't want to do that "pay per song" crap. I'd like to do the one-time flat fee and get it over with.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Umm....go buy the CD?

    Everyone does the pay per song thing, though I'm not sure if anyone does full album sales. Might as well just buy the actual cd then.

    The Napster "deal" where you pay like 15 bucks for whatever you want is more like renting the music. There's like a timer on the files and if you stop subscribing to the service, the files become useless (it checks every time you update your lists and get new music and such).

  3. So wait.. if you stop subscribing and don't update your lists etc.. then you're good?

    Hell no. You think they'd have a loop hole in there like that? The timer is on the files, if it doesn't talk to the service after whatever time, the files don't work.

    We talked about this in another thread, check this out for more info,

    I agree. MP3s have shit for quality, which is one of the main reasons I don't do the whole MP3 thing, but it's also just the decent thing to do to just go out and drop fifteen bucks on an album.

  6. You really are better off just buying the CD.
    You'll have an uncompressed hard copy of the music and you'll never have to deal with any DRM horseshit.

  7. And you can rip the cd in 10 minutes to put on your favorite mp3 player.

  8. CD's are cheap. Don't be a lazy asshole.

    I buy CDs all the time. I don't need a sermon, I'm just asking a question. If you can help, I appreciate it.

    I have a few songs here and there that I'm trying to find (not that many), and I'm not going to go around the world trying to find all of the individual CDs.

  10. Yahoo! Music is pretty slick. It's cheap and easy to use
