The Radio Dept - I Don't Need Love, I've Got My Band

Not a bad little pop-rock track, and it's free

Quote:

The Colour scramble blues guitar and gospel with a love for the obnoxious spectacle of rock 'n' roll. Their loud and hard style looks forward, but is influenced by the past five decades of popular music. The rockin' tracks from their debut Out & About keep it short, simple and sexy. You should indulge the urge to dance to our free Single of the Week, "Mirror Ball".

Sirens - Baby (Off the Wall)

Quote:

Sirens flexed their all-girl combo of hip hop and funk-pop for the first time in 2004 with their debut, Control Freaks - their cover of N.E.R.D.'s "Things Are Gettin' Better" on the album is especially hot. Kat Haslam, Lea Cummings and Lynsey Schofield each sing, dance, write their own lyrics, and call Newcastle home. For a glimpse of the next big thing in hip hop-pop, grab our free Single of the Week from Sirens, "Baby (Off the Wall)".

Wire Daisies - Make Everything Change

Quote:

Cornwall's Wire Daisies wrap the energy of today's British rock and a love for old-school songcraft around lead singer Treana Morris' strong vocal presence. This mix produces a melodic and gutsy rock that will surely mean big things for the quartet's debut, Just Another Day. Our free Single of the Week, Wire Daisies' "Make Everything Change", throws plaintive-yet-p*ssed-off lyrics at howling electric and delicate acoustic guitars.

AngÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€*Ã¢â‚¬â„¢ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â©lique Kidjo - Congoleo

Quote:

AngÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€*Ã¢â‚¬â„¢ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â©lique Kidjo makes ecstatic music on her latest release, Oyaya! ("Joy!" in her native tongue, Yoruba). The record overflows with upbeat tunes in a variety of indigenous Caribbean musical styles like salsa, merengue, and ska. Download our free Single of the Week, "Congoleo" for an education in the incendiary calypso rhythms of Trinidad. The Beninese songstress and world music star delivers "Congoleo" in the bouncing African language of Fon, complementing other album tracks recorded in French, Spanish and Yoruba.

If you download tracks to your IPOD (@ 79p) can you write these to a CD also, just about to sign up for the store.

Can I buy from the US store (are the tracks cheaper)??

**Damien** · 23-09-2004, 21:55

no you cannot buy off the US store. You cannot even buy off the euro stores which is cheaper. We have EU proteection to allow us to buy off europe under the common market. That why apple are getting in trouble.

Yes you can burn it into CD, put in your ipod and up to 3 computers

Yes, you can buy from the US store - provided you have a credit card with a US billing address. There is no complicated territory-sensing procedure going on AFAIK. However as you probably don't have a US credit card, the answer is effectively no.

EDIT

And yes, the US is cheaper - 99c is about 55p at today's exchange. France and Germany are cheaper too: 99 euro-c is 67p today.
