IMO Download

This looks quite good, just started using it to buy hardcore tracks from.

ONLY PROBLEM; The tracks are in WMA format and use Microsoft's Digital Rights Management technology (DRM) which means that you cant put them on CD, make copies of the actual file or anything!

ive found a way round this though, PM me of you want it.

So yeah, for all your digital raving needs, pretty wicked. :D

    Think it's more aimed at those with CD decks mate, gives them somewhere reliable to get their (full, high quality) tunes from.

    ahh no i think you'll find it aint.

    you can run them onto CD, you can only play the tunes on the PC you buy them for (Microsofts DRM restricts the file)

    sucks really :(

    although there is a long winded way round it

    MP3 wise, if you choose to support the artists - which you should, check out one of the following other sites:

    http://www.trackitdown.net
    http://www.trax2burn.com
    http://www.atsdigital.com
    http://www.audiojelly.com
    http://www.tmet.net

    Nu Energy, Honeypot and Tidy Digital are all launching soon.. support the scene, don't just download tracks off KaZaa or Soulseek!

    justin; just TRY getting any good Nu Energy stuff off of em :mad:

    if IMO stopped restricting their tracks so that they could at least be burned onto cd it wouldnt be so bad :(

    ok i've made a BIIIG mistake.

    you CAN burn songs from IMO download, just only through Media Player AND once they have been burned you can rip them off onto MP3 from the CD and do whatever the hell you want with them!:D

    forcing a monopoly on media player, i hate burning cds with it, hates me back equally....

    surely they know youll just rip em back off cd, so mift as well allow you to burn them automatically
