Alright, I'm gonna give it a try and buy a booster pack. Considering how many freebies I've gotten this month, if it doesn't work it's no big loss.
Ooooo, I just noticed the Dirty Beaches single on that list. I may have to grab that... -
Apparently the entire site is just for me. I logged in and found TWO demo credits. Sorry guys, all your credits r belong to me!

Interestingly, Penny Arcade set off a huge debate today with their commentary on used games sales. A major publisher said that they were being cheated by people who buy used games. This set o…

They show the prices in dollars, but when you are logged in it should say how many credits. Some labels only allow "cash" purchases.
EDIT: froggy beat me to the punch. -
I was just about to say that I should probably give Sleigh Bells another shot. Maybe I should just grab a track or two that I like. But listening to the whole album I was constantly reaching for the volume knob because it just kept getting loud and …

@elwoodicious - Is that an e-mail you got? Is it limited to a single boost pack purchase? I don't see anything on the site about it.
Also, for me, the Best Coast… -
Hey Craig, get to it!Jenny Wilson - Hardships!
Haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but the comparisons to Lykke Li and Charlotte Gainsbourg grabbed my attention. Very in…I got mine earlier today (with a pop up saying thanks for liking us or something). Guess I picked a good time to re-join. 20 freebies for me this month!(Quote) This is actually starting to bother me. I don't really see why someone who writes a 3 minute pop song that essentially re-hashes 50 other pop songs should have lifelong government protection for their work.Excellent. I just grabbed a 2 disc set from Soundway and was contemplating how to use my last 22 considering the new Esperanza Spalding is 11. Now I've got over 30 again and can play some more! Especially figuring another 5 next week.
So…I won't bother reposting the art, but I'm following in elwoodicious's footsteps right now...@kargatron
So I've been going over your post a few times in my head. You see, I agree that ethics and legality are not one in the same. That's why I've often pointe…Craig - you are dishing out in rare form these days :PI was gonna link to that one in yer other thread. For those of you skeptical of d/ling because you want the liner notes, remember that Smithsonian Folkways provides them for in Holy Crap. Comment by thomnottom August 2010I've got my August downloads on random. Ray LaMontagne -> Kraftwerk -> The Budos Band - > Gene Loves Jezebel... WTF?
Gotta get the new Esperanza @elwoodicio…Once again, there was no rocking involved for me.
Personally I thought Sucklechimp was just bored - too much creative effort put into that post.
Man, first Computer World disappeared when I was halfway through, and now the last track for Lexicon of Love didn't d/l. Nothing happened when I clicked on the link. I did notice that it wouldn't stream either - might be a good idea to try that in t…
Hot. Damn. "Sun" is the kind of…To Rococo Rot is one of my favorite band names, but I have no idea what it means.
Courtesy of Spinner's listeni…I still kick myself for not grabbing Pink Flag when it was 5 bucks on Amazon - that was like 3 years ago!
And not to depress you Craig, but I haven't seen a live concert in over 2 years now. Was going to try to see Lyle Lovett this past …Got mine today. Hoping that I get the 5 for rating albums, too.The problem with getting Pink Flag over there is that it'll take you 3 weeks and you'll get about 90 seconds of music/day. I'm not saying don't get it, just that it's a frustrating prospect.
Right now I'm finally getting ABC's Lexicon of…LPs have continued to be a popular format for the past decade or so, with lots of indie bands still releasing EPs and singles that way (albums, too). Cassettes have also become somewhat popular thanks to bullshit hipster aesthetics. Honestly, I don'…IANAL, but the HRA does not seem to apply to CD drives and computers.
