I just recently jumped on the MP3 bandwagon, so I checked out Amazon a week ago. I've been pretty happy with it. Very easy to use and the sound quality is decent. It sucks when they don't have a particular release I'm looking for but maybe I can check out some other services to see what they have.

Another album on AmazonMP3, The Best of Orson Welles, has a version clocking in at over 59 minutes, although it's an "album only" track:

Also noticed a new link that lists all the free songs available on AmazonMP3:
http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=12174450...QRJNNWN88VPDN2


Which lead me to these free albums:

Not sure what the problem was, but uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling fixed it.

This could be a misprice since there seems to be 2 different prices for the same album. One link has it for $2.99, and the other it is going for $8.99.

The System Has Failed by Megadeth $2.99

It's $8.99 here.

I've seen this on other releases, and on other mp3 download sites. There is a subtle difference between the two listings, with the $8.99 listing a release date of March 4, 2008. It's possible the record company sent Amazon the album twice, and Amazon made two separate listings for it. I don't think the $2.99 price is a misprice though.
