looking into actualy PAYING for my downloaded music to avoid any more headachs.
i want to be able to burn them to a cd as many times as i want, or transfer them to my mp3 player as many times as i want.
tryed yahoo, but wasnt happy that even though i was paying a monthly fee, i still had to pay even more for me to burn or transfer my music.
yahoo monthly=$6.99
burn song=.79 cents per song

whats everyone else using?

and what made them chose them?



I do remember watching an episode of the screen savers that showed a way around burning my music that i pay monthly for without paying for it more than once.
cant remember the name of the softwaer though.


any ideas?

how about you do a combo of P2P networks and buying the CD? Or Allofmp3. Its stupid to pay money for music that is compressed and is lossy.

Real Rhapsody. No downloads, just streaming.

Well i think its a little more cuz $26 / yr... so yea.

I let my mom use it during the day when I'm at class (although when I ditch I gotta kick her off =PPP)

paying for music = AllofMP3.

Though I also pick up quite a few cds from Amazon, that isn't downloading them though.

Napster, but just to preview music before buying at Amazon and to rent music I don't like enough to buy.

There's no way I'll buy lossy music. Lossless or nothing, I :heart: my lossless FLAC music server.

Same here. If I hear a song I like on the radio or on a band's site, I'll usually pick up their CD. Otherwise I stick to Yahoo's service though, anything that only supports one or two MP3 players just sucks IMO.
