emusic is terrific in terms of the variety offered, but they recently restricted their service so its not available in Australia. oh well, i'll keep looking I guess!

thanks everyone for your suggestions and keep them coming!

yeah :( sorry...... the site has done very well to make itself not look russian, but click on the terms of use and it talks about russian copyright laws. i did some research on this today, and they do pay royalties to the artists, but its at the discretion of the russian authorities, and if you're paying 15 cents per song, not much can be going to the artist. but even without the royalties issue, its still illegal to download from there unless you're russian. the site won't tell you that i don't think, but i don't think they have to. anyway, its all very complicated and i dont understand it, but google it and you'll see its not legitimate.

the whole thing is very frustrating as its almost impossible to find somewhere to download music which has a good range, where you can pay for it, not break any laws, not have to live in the US or russia, and have at least some of the money actually go to the artist.

whaaaaaaaat... thats wack! see i did it again... breakin the law..... and THIS TIME i didnt even do it on purpose!
 
yeah i was gonna bring that up but i thought, naaaaaa not again lol

don't worry, you just got deceived by russians! it happened to the allies too
 
This guy i used to know... he gave me that website cause he said he downloads songs from there all the time... i wonder if he knew!
 
well theres a little problem with that theory... because this guy was mexican.... and unless the russians are now recruiting a race of people who can hardly get into the u.s. i doubt he was a spy
 
Sharp, I think this dilemma comes back to an underlying sinister cause here, cos all I see is AMERICANS being the priviledged few here, while the rest of us (esp in the beautiful SOUTHERN hemisphere) are treated like pawpers.........prejudice maybe??? Snobbery???
LOL (all tongue in cheek btw....hahaha)
