Online Music Shops

Civilian_Target · 2004-01-11 01:22:26

I thought it might be an idea to make a list (or possibly even a sticky) of online music shops, because that's what I came here looking for and can't find. I'm sure it would be of benefit to all. Here's my 2c in the order of goodness www.101cd.com www.play.com www.cdwow.co.uk www.amazon.co.uk

Considering Kali's post was from over 5 years ago it's not surprising the site is gone. Site's disappear all the time.

If it's not protected by the dreaded DRM (Digital Rights Management - copy locks in other words), yes you can. You need to purchase music that's iTunes plus - this means it's DRM free. Anyway, just right-click on a song and select the Create MP3 version option. Hey Presto!

I think you can re-download music that you may have purchased in the past that has DRM on it in a newer DRM free condition. iTunes used to charge for this - I don't know if they still do. Excuse my haziness - it's been ages since I owned an iPod or used iTunes.

www.cd-services.com are based in Dundee and specialise in prog rock (60s/70s to present). Haven't bought anything from them recently but have been fine in the past.

can this thread be tidied up by the mods or a new thread created that lists the music download providers and provides info on the costs, restrictions associated with those sites etc.

everybody is chipping in with their own prefs but little info is actually given about those sites
