My appologies if this isn't exactly where it should be, wasn't sure to be honest. If it's a problem, just let me know and I'll gladly move it where ever necessary

As for my question...

Is there any dedicated site/program that offers a vast variety of artists in the form of lossless codecs similar to I-Tunes in where it's possible to purchase just one track, rather then an entire album?

Thanx!

would you purchase an illegal track?

EDIT: I have no idea as well, I would also like to know as well.
Purchasing poorly encoded mp3 is ridiculus from my point of view - I rather buy CDs

Well, I suppose that would depend on just how "illegal." However, I don't particularly care to spend money on something if it's not guaranteed. In which case, if it's in anyway illegal, then I don't suppose there's any way to insure that I'll be recieving the real thing to begin with.

I take there's nothing out there, yes?

Aw! This site looks great, appreciate it!

It says HD purchases, what does that actually imply? 16/44.1/2, (1411.2kbps) or higher?

*edit*

Wait, I'm a little confused... I ordered 2 songs, yet after entering a credit card #, an end (tot.) balance shows up as $20.00? Then, just underneath states:

"Note that the minimum transaction amount is $20. Any credit remaining after this purchase will be added to your current account balance."

Is that saying that after any purchase under $20 the difference will automaticaly and immediately be refunded back onto your card? Or, is this an established credit to all new users in first time purchases? A set pool amount in which we must all pull from each every time, arranged in $20 incraments in guaranteeing the site at least an x amount of cash flow with each new member?

Hell, nvm. I read the FAQ's down below in answering that above question. I guess I'll have to pirate .flac and convert somehow because DRM'd files won't cut it after having read further down.

Thanx for the response, but I can't find any artists I know of on Itrax.Com.
