oh...

so they only way to get a CD quality song is to buy a CD?

I just deleted all my MP3's and am re-ripping my CD's in lossless.

unfortunately yes, you have to buy them in order to get lossless downloads, it really sucks.

I believe allofmp3 offers flac, I haven't used them in ages though.

Last time I checked though at $0.02 a meg or whatever they charge these days you'd be better off paying the $3 extra & buying the damn CD.

These days I use Yahoo music, when I run across something I want in lossless I just go buy the CD.

pretty much. even the shady russian site that offered lossless just charged so much for it that ur better of buying the cd.

Yeah allofmp3 does FLAC/APE but the cost makes it unfeasible.

iTunes is 128k AAC as it always has been. Not even close to lossless.

So there IS still a use for those little frisbees

Maybe I'll go check out some of the used CD stores then. I've got a couple of CD's that I need 1 or 2 songs.

I dislike that I gotta buy a whole CD.

Maybe when connections/space becomes faster/larger they'll offer lossless.

Well, atleast you don't have to buy the whole CD through allofmp3....but like an above poster implied...the legalities of the whole operation are shady.
