    Doubtful...why not use spotify..it's free and legal and streams from the web.
    Only provision is you have to live in the UK but that's easily got around by using an UK proxy.
    There's a thread on the tech site about it.

    No. I don't know of any services that allow you to download legally and pay by text.

    Not unless you download them to your phone. Then you will get hammered with bandwith charges by your network.

    For a moment, I thought this was going to be another thread about piracy where I could lol at people trying to defend their 'ethics'. If you want free... but aren't worried about legal, there are plenty of options. None of which will be discussed here because it's all bad and illegal and stuff. It's really funny when that site becomes an elephant in the corner.

    It always does.

    I know, instead of putting credit in your phone, walk into HMV and buy a bloody CD.

    Easiest way is to get a 3V card from your local centra and use iTunes tbh

    Don't networks have those offers where you can buy a song for €3 or so? Or yeah just buy the CD and put it on your phone using a USB connection. I've loads on my phone from my laptop.

    Im very suprised this isnt already available. seems like a very simple way to get people to pay for a service online. i remember my brother paying for runescape by text one time and he said it was quick and easy and it didn't bite him in the arse.

    Im starting a pay by text music website...well...maybe not...

    Or you can buy them in phone shops.

    Some people may want to buy a song for €0.99 instead of buying it on a CD with 2 other songs you've never heard of/remixed for €4..............

    Who buys CD's anyway?? :S
