how about download365, i can't find the homepage for it, but it is available through NTL broadband plus, you get 100 free credits, which is 100 streams, 10 temporary downloads or 1 permanent download per month. You can then pay for extra credits to download more. Prices work out at from 80p per track.

A legal take on the file sharing malarky - and they have signed up some pretty good catalogues of music too.

Some of the more abstract stuff from Warp Records, but available as a standard MP3 without evil DRM.

and the site only works with internet explorer. (tut tut)
I will check out emule later and the last version of klite I tried didn't work.
[edit]not on winmx and yes the queues are mad

Unless you like low bitrate (128kbps) compressed WMA with lot of DRM on it then it is best to avoid it completely. I don't think it's worth 99p to pay to download such a track. It is simply not worth it!

I personally feel that these legal download sites are a complete rip off for what you get.

I am beginning to agree with you

which is a shame because it's a good idea

You can alter the bit rate using Nero before you burn to cd

http://etree.org - Find out more about downloading live recordings from bands that allow it - no top 40 here , but probably bands with more talent in their littlke fingers than the plastic pop artists hyped by the music biz.
