I did find a program. If you'd like to know, give me a PM. Since the forums are for people who hate their lives so they have to go pick cyber fight. Get a life "Lifers".
LOL, if you were just "trying before buying" you wouldn't need this type of program would you?

I'm not dissing you for d/l MP3s, just cut the BS because you're not fooling anyone here.

is allofmp3.com even legal? 1cent a MB is certainly a good deal, but I question its legality.

Also, how is the selection?

Legality can be debated for hours. It has been, actually; just search OT, Hot Deals, and FatWallet.

But people who have used it says it works great, they don't scam you (yes I've used my CC with the site, and no funny charges for the past year I've been using it), sound quality is excellent, and none of that DRM sh1t.

I typically stick with music they offer online encoding for, because that offers the best sound quality.

Download their AllOfMP3 explorer and music database; the search function is excellent and you can find out easily if they have the music you like.

I will agree with folks that 1cent per MB is probably much too low to support any artists, but I'll counter that the industry standard 99cents per song is much too high. 25cents per song is what iTunes, Napster, and Rhapsody will need to charge before I consider their services...BUT ONLY if they up their audio quality, and allow for unlimited burning, transfers, etc. Otherwise if I wanted to pay $10 for 10 songs from an artist, I could buy their uncompressed audio CD and rip it/burn it/transfer it as much as I want.

ATOT's - or, at least, a few of the most vocal members' - attitudes to music downloading have always perplexed me. I don't have a problem with anyone being for it, or against it, but this holier-than-thou stuff is kind of repugnant.

Ugh.

Prevention goes a long way: Don't put downloaded "free samples" in the play list until you've listened to them.

Of course that little gem doesn't do much for making me want to help you.
