Subject: [access-uk] online music stores
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.
