Land of Enchantment
I am looking to sign up to a new music download site and just wondered what site you all are using. I don't want anything too expensive, but want a good variety of music to choose from.

I know some sites you can choose to pay per song/download, but I would rather pay for something on a monthly basis and not be limited on the number of songs I can download. This would be downloads for 3 MP3 players plus just wanting to add to the library we already have.

Any suggestions?

I'm a slave to Steve Jobs so I use itunes to update my three ipods.

I will use it on my future iphone for Verizon and the ipad 2 if there is a full size USB port

How are the prices on Amazon.com? I have that App on my phone but haven't used it yet. But I may if I can transfer the songs to my iPod.

Most songs on Amazon are 99 cents. once in a while you'll find one that's $1.29 or something, and some songs are available in album only (about ten bucks).

One of my Christmas gifts was a gadget that records cassettes, camcorder tapes, 8-tracks, etc. on to your hardrive in MP3 format and then loads them automatically onto Itunes.....

this will keep me busy for the first 3 years of my retirement...

And a lot of times Amazon runs free MP3 promotionals - they just had a free $2 in downloads last week. Amazon also has a ton of free music.

I use Rhapsody. It's easy to use and manage.

I used to use Limewire for years...free...but I recently heard they were shut down like Napster. Argh, I guess my days of piracy are over.

Napster has re-surfaced as a "paid" site. They have several pricing options.

I use itunes and amazon. But amazon more often, they have alot of free music, and as EGB said, you can get free music promortions all the time. the nice thing is that amazon will import directly into itunes, i don't have to do anything in order to get it on my ipod.
