Being of the age where my interest in persuing new media to play popular music from the hit parade has started to wane, music is not the prime driver. Also I'm sure that it would join the little piles of portable things that she thinks she wants and then the battery runs out, so it would join the walkman, portable CD, minidisc and ibook in the corner. I use her digital radio.

Fair enough. Not all the music available online is mindless chart pap though - I've got some old AC/DC lined up for download amongst other things. How many bottles of homebrew do you want for the ibook?

Where/how does one download music? I don't mind paying for it if there really isn't any alternative ) But I want more shelves for books!

If you want cheap (LEGAL ) (well nearly. Read the links) online music, have a look at www.allofmp3.com. Make sure you switch to English, if your cyrillic's not up to much! I've been using it for just over a month, but they've only just doubled their prices to 2 cents a Mb!!!!!! That means it's over $1 per album! I remember when it was 50p a pint etc....

(If you're as dubious as I was!)

legalish, then! I can't get onto to the site though - it says no configuration file (or some such IT-ese version of 'no'!) I'll try again later.

It seemed to pick up a rogue fullstop in the url - try it now.

I've been using allofmp3 for over a year now, excellent. I also use www.emusic.com which has a lot of stuff from Inependent labels
