eMusic UK has just lanched and I’ve been transferred from the US site to the UK one. This is bad because I now have to pay VAT on my subscription but good because I’m paying about £6.50/month for 40 songs and the new UK subscription price is £8.99 and… the new lineup of artists is awesome!
I just downloaded Arctic Monkeys and Bare Naked Ladies albums in high quality DRM-free mp3s, next month I think it’ll be White Stripes, Franz Ferdinand, Badly Drawn Boy… the list goes on.
Ask me to send you a referral email and subscribe to eMusic – support a music store which supports independent artists and sells DRM-free music for 17 to 22p a song.
They’re not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but eMusic are some of the good guys.
