                    Hi all
I am looking for a good site to download MP3 singles and albums from? I dont really want to use iTunes because of the protection. Basically I want a cheap site, that I can use the songs on multi players/platforms/mp3 players
Any help would be much appreciated

 You can use them on any device that supports AAC files.0

            Try Spotify or Grooveshark to listen to songs online for free :money:0

            There's no DRM on music or podcasts on iTunes, there is on video content though.
 The main issue with iTunes is that it uses the AAC file format insteadof MP3. So if your player doesn't support AAC you have to convert to MP3 which I believe you can do from within iTunes.
 There's an article here comparing iTunes and AmazonIt's my problem, it's my problem
 If I feel the need to hide
 And it's my problem if I have no friends
 And feel I want to die0
