Amazon Free Music Downloads

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...154349-5698367

I just found this a couple of days ago and it's AWESOME. Hundreds of songs to download (the artists give permission for Amazon to offer them for free). It includes some well-known artists like Eminem, 50-cent, Alison Kraus and Tom Waits along with some lesser known singers. I found "Reconstruction Site" by The Weakerthans and I just sat through it 35 times straight (iTunes keeps track). I LOVE it.

After you download quite a few Amazon seems to hang and not give the Download dialog so if that happens, leave the site and come back in a few hours and you can go on downloading. Don't keep hitting it because after so many times it tell you you have exceeded the allowable downloads even if you haven't been able to download it once.

I am one happy camper

If you're trying to load up your Ipod, you should also take a look at the sticky thread at the top of this forum -- Official (Legal) Releases Available for Download -- where that Amazon link was already mentioned.

Interesting... Anybody else get the download from Cherry Bikini?

It's pretty funny how a lot of the #1 songs have profanity in the title.
