Just browsing for some new music and was wondering, as i currently use Amazon, Play, Itunes and Tesco to download music are their any other places worth checking out before making a purchase? I tend to graze Spotify until i find something i like so its not very often chart music that i'm looking for.

Do you mean to discover new music or to buy it when you know what you want?
If the latter have you seen MSE TuneChecker?0 -
I am looking for a way to replace my old Beatles "20 Golden Greats" cassette, it is still not possible to download individual songs from the Beatles to make the compilation I want. If anything changes please also post here!0

The Beatles still have not authorized any digital downloads of their songs. You have to either buy the various CDs and rip the songs you want, or go down the pirate route. It's a shame really.I am looking for a way to replace my old Beatles "20 Golden Greats" cassette, it is still not possible to download individual songs from the Beatles to make the compilation I want.

I used Mindawn once as they provide music in FLAC format (I wouldn't pay for poor quality MP3s!). There's a lot of mainstream stuff they don't have, but they were the only place I could find a copy of a pretty obscure reggae/dub album I was trying to find.You have to either buy the various (Beatles') CDs and rip the songs you want, or go down the pirate route.
Ha ha - ripping music from CD is piracy as it contravenes copyright law!0 -
Ha ha - no it's not!
Ha ha - oh yes it is! Why would you say it isn't?!

I'm not that big on the Beatles - I preferred the Who, but I did download their discography. http://www.mp3locker.net/2008/07/beatles-uk-studio-discography-1963-1970.htmlI shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.
