Perhaps because there are only one or two tracks on an album to which you'd want to listen? I'm in exactly that position at the moment, having about two tracks from each of half a dozen albums that rank among my top favourites, but also knowing that I really do not want the rest of the albums. Downloading is lots cheaper in those circumstances. However, I'm still never going back to any downloading poor quality lossy, as in iTunes music store. Most of these single tracks were originally bought from iTunes, and I've decided that I can put up with them no longer. Either I download lossless files (preferably AIFF or ALAC) or else I grit the teeth and return, wailing, to haunt Amazon again.
