Name The Album You Just Bought - Page 7

Okay... this is a bit funny. So I went to www.emusic.com/ticketmaster where they're offering 50 free downloads with a trial subscription. You're billed between $9.99 to $19.99 a month (depending on basic or premium) if you don't cancel within 14 days. I registered, gave my credit card # and found out that the selection was terrible. What a shock! Trial subscription package.

The selection was so horrible that even big artists like U2, REM etc. had no songs available for download. But I still managed to find 3 albums that I'd been wanting to get for a while...

Moby - Play
The White Stripes - Elephant
Gary Numan - The Pleasure Principle

and one song by the Brand New Heavies - Midnight At Oasis

And that's it. I cancelled my account! Easiest 50 songs I ever got!

If the selection had been better (and maybe it gets better once your trial ends) I may have even kept the account. But I'm not gonna pay $19.99 a month for karaoke CDs, one hit wonders and 70s pop hits collections.

Emusic isn't for mainstream artists (because of the lack of DRM) but I just signed up for their trial and got The National's two earlier albums for free

^ I've gotten lots of good stuff on emusic, been a member for years. The pricing has changed a lot though, it used to be $10/month for unlimited downloads.

Just bought iTunes Originals - The Flaming Lips.
