Comments on: Get a free MP3 album from Rhapsody

If you sign up for Rhapsody's new MP3 store before July 4, you can get a $10 credit to use for songs or an album.

I agree, this will probably be bad for amazon. I tried amazon mp3 before and found it to be a hassle because their whole service is web based. Sometimes the links didn't load and when you tried to do it again it resulted in a double purchase I got 5 free songs cause I bought a zune from amazon but only ended up getting three because it messed up. Customer service fixed it but I didn't trust it to work after that. Client based software like yahoo (now rhapsody) and itunes is the way to go.

Mac users do no need to download any software. The album downloads as a standard zip file.

I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed with the selection thus far. No Raconteurs, no Iron and Wine, limited Decemberists... had a hard time finding an album I really wanted!

Both of those bands are on there, as The Raconteurs and Iron & Wine.

D'oh! Should have clarified. The Raconteurs are there, but no albums are available for purchase -- only some interview thing. As for Iron & Wine, I did a search for "Iron and Wine" and found nothing. Bad search engine. Bad!

Also, you don't have to install the download manager on Windows; the option to download your order as a zip file is right below the option for installing the download manager.
