It works for me! Thank you very much! Although I'm only getting it as it didn't take any effort.
 
I downloaded two tracks when the $3 promotion was going on .......If I really want music. Amazon at this moment will never be where I'm getting them. They were encoded by a monkey ..or monkeys for that matter. MP3 256kbps......sounds like it is a MP3 128kbps BUT with the addition artifacts everywhere. 

Unfortunately none of the top online music stores offer really high quality. iTunes isn't as bad but it's not great, either. I'd never use either of them.

Well I suggest you use both of them before making an opinion of it as with iTunes it is incredibly hard to tell the differenec apart from a lossless copy.

Sorry about the bad links had it on my phone so it was a bit trying to get it to work. I don't notice anything bad in the music but I don't have the high end like others do.

They weren't any problems for me at any case so they weren't exactly universally bad

Is the album good!? I haven't demo'd it yet....F it...$5 I'm getting it.
 
Linkin Park head here!
 
Wait, so you just buy the CD normally and it charges it or the price you have in MP3 saved up to the CD!?

^yup. I applied both codes and it said I had $5 credit and I bought it as a gift as if you're just buying with cash it'll say amount due 0.00

No, I'm pretty sure you can't buy CDs with your MP3 credits. I think she means she bought the Linkin Park 'album' (in mp3), not the physical CD.

Gift? I tried...but I still got charged in full... I just added the CD and paid for it normally :frowning2:
 
Oh well :) Decent albumn. Linkin Park has been changing their styles for the last half decade. Like one reviewer stated, they are doing something extremely bold by not playing it safe. But seriously at $10.. I don't care. I'm supporting them, Amazon, UPS and I get my own physical copy.

Also anyone with the extra credit can get this album. Has 111 songs from 50s and 60s and its only 2.99. Tons of great songs. So with the code above its less than a penny a song.

Sorry - I'd never use any of them AGAIN. I used it plenty in the pass when I didn't care so much. Sorry but iTunes is just as bad at doing this with some albums and only a little better in others. Add that to the fact that they want different file types just to be different, it's a big, huge laugh. A lossless copy will always sound better than an iTunes file and in 9/10 cases most of us here would be able to tell the difference, especially with our awesome rigs. I have nothing AGAINST the store at all and if it works for you then that's great. Not trying to dissuade anybody here.
