Hi everyone, I was thinking of messaging a MOD and suggesting a thread for all music downloads as there are quite a few good ones scattered on here.

What do people think?

It would be easier to see them all in one place.

    Fantastic idea, I just got an ipod and a stereo with a hard drive so any downloads particularly free ones, (if they exist), would be great. Even just ones that are really cheap or are drm free would be good aswell.

    Thanks for posting although this is the no spend/freebies section so unfortunately cheap isnt free enough :beer: Cheers though I will have a look at the sites.
