info can be found at

Hi,

I personally really really like http://www.7digital.com
unfortunately a lot of their stuff is also drm protected, but you can 
download it on up to 3 different computers. I don't think there is a way to 
download whole album, they also present you with just individual track, but 
as I'm on a quite fast connection personally it doesn't really present a 
problem. Another alternative if you are really bothered about that is to use 
a download manager. Another quite decent service although I haven't used it 
for a while is http://www.tunetribe.com.

  Can anyone recommend any Websites for purchasing mp3 albums?  I just about 
worked myself around to tring out all of mp3 when it was closed down, 
nervous about giving my credit card details to the russian mafia I'm not 
keen to try out mp3sparks but would prefer a service which lets me credit my 
accounts via a more trust worthy 3rd party.  E-music doesn't seem very 
screenreader friendly, legal sounds seems good but I couldn't find a way to 
credit an account from the UK, the only european agent rejected my card and 
some reading around on the Web suggested that most banks don't let you pay 
legal-sounds without first authorising the payment over hte phone because of 
the risky nature of the parent company.  They do give away one track a day 
free but I couldn't seem to download it using their download manager 
software which they claim is the only way to collect your purchased title 
although elseware on the site it suggest you can just download by right 
clicking titles on the site itself. also you can only download purchased 
titles once.

  I've currently settled on GoMusic as you can pay as you go or pre credit 
your account, it's easy to make payments and the interface is ok with jaws. 
the main problem I've had so far is that you seem to have to download each 
track individually rather than being able to download a whole album even 
though you purchase the album as a whole.  chart albums seem to cost between 
2 and 2 and a half dollars.

  can anyone tell me how to download a whole album from GoMusic or recommend 
an alternative.
