    Best place to download music (legally)

    Where is the best place to download mp3's? I see napster has some monthly option, and itunes has a .99c per download option. What do you guys use?

    (btw, I know how to download music for free, but i'd rather avoid doing that if possible)

    thanks!

      MTV has a new one called www.urge.com its alright, not the best though.

      www.napster.com has a good one too. itunes is overpriced in my opinion.

          How does napster work? I seen on their site that they have a monthly fee. Do I just pay monthly and download whatever I want? Unlimited?

          Thanks!

              I like the prices, but I do agree, very shady looking. Not sure i'd trust them with my CC. Is that legal? Thanks!

                They have 3rd party billing. I've charged my card twice with no problems at all.

                RIAA is trying to shut them down, but they do pay royalties... in Russia. lol

                I think that right now they're still legal in the US. I wouldn't know, I'm freezing my ass in South America right now.

                          didn't know about walmart - but like most of the newer download sites, they're windows encoded and won't play on iPods

                                  Is it really legal?? I'd watch my personal and cc info on a .ru site.

                                        You can download by song for 99¢ like ITunes or pay the monthly subscription.

                                        The monthly has 2 tiers one you can just play on your computer for like $10 a month and you can download as many songs as you like. For like $5 more you can put songs on a portable MP3 players( except Ipod ) of course once you subscription runs out you no longer have access to the music.

                                        Yahoo as has a similar plan. Except it's $7 a month for the basic plan or $60 for a year. Their "To go" plan which you can put the music on portable players is $12 a month $120 if you pay for a year.

                                        If you subscribe to Yahoo Music Unlimited you can buy songs for 79¢

                                        I'm not much into buying music so I do the subsciption thing. I've tried both. I'm currently using Yahoo because it's cheaper plus I like it a bit better, but they are both about the same as far as number of songs. Both have free tirals so it doesn't hurt to trt them out and see if you like them. Of course you don't pay any monthly fee if you just want to buy music from either.

                                          NOT legal. And no the artists don't actually get the money. Anyone that trusts a .ru site is an IDIOT.

                                                                Select "GUIDE" then search for a song.

                                                                When you play a song in their guide section in WMP it downloads it to your pc in the temp internet files, just locate the file then put it in a folder you can easily access.

                                                                I haven't paid for a song since last year i reckon.

                                                                        When you play a song in their guide section in WMP it downloads it to your pc in the temp internet files, just locate the file then put it in a folder you can easily access.

                                                                        I haven't paid for a song since last year i reckon.

Um no. Say some country has alaw where 13 year olds can do porn. Can YOU watch and download that content becuase it legal there? Um no.

                                                                                      Napster, Rhapsody, Yahoo Music, Urge, Wal-Mart just to name of few sell music online and guess what NO ONE is trying to shut them down like they are with allofmp3. Now if what they are doing is legal why are people trying to shut them down? Does this make sense?

                                                                                      I've used it, and continue to use it.

Your girlfriend must love how much of a cheapskate you are. See if you get that job at Burger King you can get money for your music AND take your girlfriend out for a romantic dinner at half price.
