Ya, well I'm trying to put together a CD for band practice, and iTunes simply has the best selection of stuff, hands down. Try searching on the name of just about any song and you'll get many versions of it. Its amazing to just listen to the previews and get a feel for how many ways of doing the same song there can be. EMusic does not have this kind of selection, or this kind of search capability. Ya sure you can search for strings in artist, track, album fields etc, but then you have to crawl your way through the listings and quickly listening to a ppreview of something didn't seem to be straightforward.
ITunes is great, but it just isn't accessible. You can sort of do most things, but I still haven't been able to purchase anything without sighted assistance. Moving the mouse to the 99 cent field and clicking does nothing except moves me to some other entry in the songs outline. -- Rich ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ryan Mann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 06, 2007 1:12 PM Subject: Re: Purchasing Music Via ITunes Emusic is pretty accessible because you don't actually need any software. You just log into the web site and use your web browser to download the music. There is no DRM either.
