This Cloud Drive is horrendous.

I've purchased two records at work and then go into the Cloud Drive and attempt to download them. It downloads 4KB files for each track and no matter what I do I can't get it to download the actual mp3. Totally lame.

6/1 (Wednesday): Take Care, Take Care, Take Care by Explosions in the Sky - $2.99

They are featured in Friday Night Lights, movie and tv soundtracks. Not a huge discount on this one though. It's a 6 track album with one not available as an MP3.

Free MP3: Like A Diamond (with Glass Ghost) by Sharon Van Etten and Glass Ghost[/QUOTE]

Actually, the last track is "album only," meaning that you can't purchase it as an individual track, but if you purchase the whole album, you'll get an MP3 download of the song (and/or it'll upload to your cloud drive).

This is typical for tracks that are over 10 minutes in length.

Yes. I've used it for years.

But it must be my work computer. It worked perfectly fine on my home machine. Perhaps I need to reboot more than once a year.

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (May-June)

Amazon gets it. At least from my perspective.

These $5 albums kill me. I will grab 4 or 5 a month where I would NEVER, ever download a $9.99 album from iTunes. (I could see some exceptions like if there was something I had to have that moment for whatever reason.) Either Apple makes a ton off mindless drones and doesn't even notice Amazon or Amazon is starting to eat some of their lunch.

By the way, why is Pet Sounds listed in their $5 albums when it is priced at $6.99?

Jayhawks The Bunkhouse Album.
