It downloads right into my iTunes library 3. No locks on the music 4. I love their sales - I got Elton John's greatest hits for $2 (come on, every music library has to have some of his stuff). I haven't bought from iTunes all year. http://www.paperbackswap.com/index.php?n=2&r_by=heykaren

Wow.

I was using amazon.co.uk for years to buy the superior British editions of the Harry Potter books (and paying through the nose for shipping), but downloading songs from there never occurred to me.

Also, I know of no one else that has this problem.

I use it regularly.
