Rant: Why can't we have some good legal MP3 sites?

Good mp3 site?

Well, www.manowar.com is good, IMO. It's the artists site, tracks are $1.25 🙁 But albums save you $$$, and even a 26 minute track they have on one album is $1.25, so it's a flat fee.
Dunno about DRM, but it's 256kb mp3, and the money goes to the artist. That's the sort of thing which is good to me. The artist getting the money themselves.

Yeah, I wish more artists would do this.

How much does it cost for Allofmp3? It says you have to have enough credit to download a song and I don't completely understand it, but I want to know before I give my credit card number to a "sort of legal" website from Russia.

Rhapsody is the awesome!!

I've not used AllofMP3 yet, but it does look tantalising.

Another win for international communism!

It will be funny if the RIAA does ever decide to pay whatever bribe is needed to have the Russian courts shut them down and get their customer records :evil:

The MPAA has just gotten a judge in Texas to shut down BitTorrent site LokiTorrent.com and ordered them to turn over their server logs to the MPAA's attorneys (ArsTech)

Too expensive. That stuff adds up man.

I'll be using allofmp3 when I get home to my own computer. Torrent servers need to stop logging.

piracy affects regular people more than movie stars. you think they're gonna cut tom cruise's salary? no.

i'm speaking as someone who's had a movie i've worked on pirated on the net.

I understand that, but I wish people would grow up and maybe instead of paying a movie star $30,000,000 dollars they could pay them $29,000,000 dollars and share the extra $1,000,000 with the people who do the actual hard work in the movie.

Most of the crew working on a movie get paid a lot less than Brad Pitt, including most of the lesser-known actors.

Netflix and Blockbuster cost under $20 a month.
