RE: Download Unlimited tracks from NAPSTER For £10 a month!!

There`s some info regarding the MP3 site mentioned. There are current ongoing legal battles with the firms that provide this music cheaply. Suppose they would need to take brunt first as informing users it is legal!!

See the below link from the Guardian:

RE: Which MP3 Player?

What about the Creative Zen 40Gb for £190 at Amazon?

Seems to be more than you would need, and could stick lifetime of music on it!!

Any similar specs for better price!!

RE: Download Unlimited tracks from NAPSTER For £10 a month!!

Thanks!!

GMAN what process/software would I need to get rid of Digital Rights Management, copy them on to a CD then back on to PC as MP3/WMA, preferably freeware than shareware!!

Cheers for your help!! Will let you all know whether it works when I do give it a go!! £10 small sacrifice to pay!!

RE: Download Unlimited tracks from NAPSTER For £10 a month!!

Is there no way of copying them on to a CD (which is legal) then converting to MP3 back to the hard drive taking away the NAPSTER protection. Surely once its on the MP3 PLAYER they should still play and not be hindered by no longer being a subscriber.

Dbrand H9713 DVD Recorder £69.96 - Any good? Any Recommendations?

Ref posting by ALT

Duraband is being sold for £69.96 at ASDA
1. Does any one know if the recorder is any good?
2. Whether a dvd recorder is worth having (e.g. is the pic quality any good)?
3. Whether there any other good deals around?
4. Is there a region hack for it?

Thanks!!

RE: Cheapest place to buy MP3 tracks??

You do have a legal right to transfer to a cd, and three other home pcs I believe. Do you know what freeware software you could download to convert napster tracks in to normal mp3s.

Download Unlimited tracks from NAPSTER For £10 a month!!

Looking around for MP3 track deals. It seems the best I`ve found so far is to download an umlimited number of tracks in one month through NAPSTER legally for one month and then cancel the membership ... all for just under £10.

Seems too good to be true ... have I missed something?

Apart from the illegal free download sites, does anyone know if you can get a better deal from anyone else?

Thanks!! :/

RE: Cheapest place to buy MP3 tracks??

Appears that NAPSTER is a good deal!!

For £9.95 a month, can download an unlimited number of tracks and then cancel whenever you like!!

Does anyone know of anything better??

Cheapest place to buy MP3 tracks??

Whats the best/cheapest site for downloading MP3`s?

Is there anywhere you can pay a monthly rental and download an unlimited number of tracks or is on a per track basis?

Thanks!!

Which MP3 Player?

There are so many MP3 players on the market of various makes and different memory capacities!!!

Does the make of the player make any real difference?

Any recommendations for which player to buy ... and the best price?

Thanks all!!

14 MILLION XBOXES ARE DANGEROUS

IF YOU HAVE AN XBOX MADE IN EUROPE PRIOR TO THE 13TH JANUARY 2004 (SEE BASE OF CONSOLE) THEN YOUR XBOX IS AT RISK.

THEY FEAR THAT THE XBOX CAN CATCH FIRE. THEY INFORM USERS THAT YOU CAN STILL PLAY IT. BUT WHEN FINISHED YOU SHOULD TURN OFF THE POWER TO IT COMPLETELY AND UNPLUG IT.
