iTunes is so damn easy to use that it's crazy and pretty good, especially if you have an iPhone or iPod but if you're looking for super rare stuff then you might have problems. I do think they have a growing number of indie stuff on there that they're trying to promote.

Amazon owns iTunes in quality, price and DRM freeness

Thanks for both of youre suggestions. Yea itunes does not have what I need most of the time : / But amazon does when I search and I have not tried amazon yet. Most people tell me use amazon. I guess I i'll give it a shot. Thanks for the input! I used to use trackitdown.net they are legal... but they charge $2.90-3.20 per song!!!!! That is pure insanity.

How, when they both use the same bitrate (256kbit/s), but Apple uses MP4/AAC, while Amazon uses MP3?

And if Apple don't have it in DRM-free form, chances are Amazon won't ether. The only reason I can see to use Amazon over iTunes is if your mp3 player/phone/pda doesn't support AAC.

Amazon has a greater selection of non mainstream bands so go with them.

Amazon doesn't carry DRM music at all, hence the better quality.

But the point I am trying to make is that if Apple has a DRM version of a song, it shouldn't be on Amazon because as you say, Amazon don't carry DRM music.

The songs that have DRM on iTunes are that way because that's the way the music companies want it.

Has anyone used Zune Marketplace? Or is this software just for Zune players?
