Brilliant

But cannot get the any action on the MP3 page, nothing seems to work. Maybe massively jammed after the publicity. Will try later

Just downloaded with no probs. This really is a bargain. Thanks OP.:beer:

It downloads the music, makes sure that you have received a full and uncorrupted download, if one track didn't download correctly (which one didn't for me) you click resume download and it tries the tracks again (if any) that didn't download successfully the first time. No big deal really, but your choice...

I agree. I loaded 6 albums down before Christmas without any problems. It's just Amazons way of controlling the download process; simplifies the user experience (urgh! sorry about that but you know what I mean); reduces Amazons support requirement; basically it's features like this that reduces costs for everyone.:T

Plus it helps to fill up your hard drive with unneccessary software.

Sorry - a no-go for me.

£3 for a huge selection of music? Sounds a no-brainer doesn't it?

So why does Amazon insist you download their own proprietary software to do it? For me this is a simple not-on. An mp3 is an mp3 - you shouldn't need extra software to download, and I'm hugely suspicious about this requirement.

Downloadable music is clearly the future - but not like this. I don't know what Amazon's software does, and I'm surely not about to find out the hard way.

chill out mate. it's fine, it's a small downloader, then you can uninstall it if you like. I'm not even a classical fan, but honestly this is a great deal and I think if I turn it up REALLY loud it'll be ok....I hope.

Just uninstall it afterwards if you're that desperate for hard disk space! :rotfl:

It's only 100 samples, or tasters. It's all a bit too Classic FM for me, but you should give them a listen, you never know you may want to hear the complete pieces.
