<http://www.emusic.com/> supports the Macintosh (through a secondary partner.) I'm a satisfied customer, that's my only affiliation. " EMusic is a revolutionary new music discovery service that offers an easy and inexpensive way for avid music fans to download and enjoy over 200,000 high-quality MP3 songs from established musicians. For as little as $9.99 a month, you can download as much music as you desire from EMusic's catalog. All of the music is legitimately licensed from record labels and artists, so you can feel comfortable knowing that songwriters, musicians and other copyright-holders are being fairly compensated for their work. " They have a 14 day/50 MP3 free trial period so you can try it out. All of the songs that I've downloaded have been 128 bit encoded MP3s that play quite nicely in iTunes. You notably will NOT find Brittany Spears (or other BS style stuff.) But you will find a great collection of electronic music (Trance, IDM, etc.) and a pretty good collection of jazz. That's where most of my downloads fall. I don't know how the other Genres are represented. But you can search for free to see what they have before you sign up. And if you have iTunes Scripts (available here: <http://www.apple.com/applescript/itunes/>) you can initiate an emusic search without leaving iTunes. -Dave -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
