Just wanting to know where you all download your music from.

If you could give me the link and if you pay for your downloads or not

Also, being from Canada, I cannot get a lot of shows repeated through the broadcast company. It doesn't allow people out of the States to use this feature. Is there a site you can go to for downloading shows that you missed and does this cost you?


TIA

I am afraid I am scrupulously honest, I download music from itunes and my tv shows from ituns, at a cost. I also download from real player because I get 10 bucks worth of free songs every month with my superpass subscription and I also get a free game everymonth with my superpass.

I download my music and TV shows from iTunes as well -- pay for them.

But Skootz, I had to use my U.S. address and credit card when I signed up because you're right, if you're from Canada you can't get most of it. (And FWIW, it's the fault of the CRTC -- those broadcast laws designed to "protect" Canadian content.)

I only use Itunes (and am such an English teacher that I follow copyright laws religiously) -- and I just downloaded a very fun "telenovela" called El Cuerpo de Deseo. The whole season is $20, but the one episode was only $1.99. The only bummer -- TV shows can't be burned to DVD from Itunes like movies can. :-( I'll have to hook my laptop up to my projector at school if I want to show it to my students.

I use Real and as Maris said, I get $10 bucks a month with my subscription, so that pretty much takes care of my music needs.

I LOVE Real Rhapsody! I use it in combination with Itunes.

With Real, you can listen to MOST cd's in their entirety like if you already owned it. YOu can download them and burn them into cd's as well.

I use Itunes of course for my Ipod and to make cd's as well.

The reason I have both is because sometimes I just feel like listening to a song , not necessarily just the 30 seconds of it. Sometimes I buy them sometimes I don't. They also have a zillion radio stations -like satellite radio- that you can listen to on demand. Much better, IMHO than the Itunes ones. With Itunes, you only get 30 seconds of their choosing.

With both it's .99 per song, with Real there is an additional 12.99. (just went up for the 1st time in 6 years - it has always been 9.99)

But, if you switch to yearly billing you can get a membership rate of $9.99 per month.

I really love that Umbrella song by Rihanna. I would like to download in my myspace page. Is that possible or would it get deleted by artist?

And don't tell anyone, but, i like Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne too.

Kinda catchy.

LOL! ewwww I can't stand the Girlfriend song.

You can look up Rihanna under MUSIC and I believe she has UMBRELLA under her legal Myspace page. Just hit ADD and it will be automatically added to your page. It only gets deleted when it's not the artist's official page.

I have a question for y'all. Is limewire still illegal if you get the pro version? It's like $30.00, so thats not bad, but I really don't wanna go to jail:-)

KTBB, I've had limewire for several years and love it. I don't worry about getting busted for free shareware because they aren't looking for someone like me that only has a couple hundred songs. They are looking for the folks that have thousands of songs. I've always had the free basic. You just have to upgrade the version every so often.

Thanks Twinkie that makes me feel better. What is the difference between the pro and basic? Do you know?

Probably not much. I've been using the basic for years and I've never had a problem, so I can't see upgrading to Pro. I don't know what the upgrade could include that would make what I have any better.
