Default Site for downloading music
If I wanted to download music whats the best site to use?
I would probably download quite a few songs so would I be better paying a monthly sum (which I heard you can do) or paying for songs singlely?

I don't know the name of any (legal) sites

with the prices on itunes etc, you'd be as well to just order the cd online, unless of course you're just after one or two songs. I'm not too impressed with the quality of itunes downloads that i've heard either.

plus the fact all music is downloaded in a compressed format (mp3, aac, wma, etc...) if i own the cd i own the best quality available (well, within reason, it has still be recorded digitally [often done that way in the first place now] so without owning the master tapes or vinyl or something...) even if i may not be able to tell the difference, i much prefer having it if i need it in the future

hence me spending another £20 on a few cds from one up today...
