No need to pay money when you can get the whole album for free!

that site's selection is awesome, but no cell phone=no free albums.
Thanks, though!

Zeppelin - I assume this is similar reasoning to the beatles, reduced quality, risk of distribution, and all the recordings are on their own (non major) record label, Swan Song. You'll notice you won't find Bad Company's original albums on iTunes either.
AC/DC's absent, as are all sorts of other classic rock bands
that's what I thought was happening, ashame that musicians feel their getting ripped (rightfully so)
thanks, I guess I'll just have to buy the CD's
how extract .rar files on a mac???
Apple isn't ripping anyone off. They don't make much money on iTMS at all. The labels are to thank for that. I'd say independent artists actually make more $$$ on iTMS sales than any other format. Apple relies on iPod sales to drive their music revenue.Quote:

Oink is the shit. Pretty much anything cool can be found there...but they are clamping down on share ratios and cheaters, so be careful with your invites, they now threaten to take them away if your invitee cheats.Quote:
