I agree with Fuchsia. If you download least 10 songs per month (less then 1 album) subscription is pretty much always cheaper.
I use Sky Songs and ANY track (top 10 or old stuff) is one credit = 65p..... As a subscriber, I get 10 included tracks per month (which is about what I need) so it brilliant value + I get unlimited streaming of every other song ever released....
emusic and a few others are the same I think...... Spotify is similar but costs the same £6.49 as Sky and has NO included downloads so costs more long term.
Stay Soggy.

I think this site needs a warning on it that individual mp3 downloads may not be cheaper than a subscription plan from an alternative provider if you're downloading a large number of tracks regularly.
I used emusic for a while and my subscription worked out at about 22p per track when mp3 downloads elsewhere were averaging around 49p-80p per track on the other main sites. It wouldn't surprise me if subscription sites are still cheaper if you're downloading a lot of tracks on a regular basis.
