Arrow Record Companies Cave - Download MP3s Legally FREE with Qtrax
After years of consumer-targeting lawsuits and a constant decline in the levels of CD sales, the music industry has switched tactics and decided that all music downloads should be FREE and LEGAL. This is not a joke. Qtrax has raised $30 million to set up the online music service. What sets Qtrax apart is that it claims to be fully sanctioned by the major record labels and works without membership or fees.


Discuss "Download MP3s Legally FREE Qtrax" here. Read the article.

I wonder how Apple and iTunes will counter this? They will have to pay people to download music I guess

Unbelievable. If this actually pans out, it will put the RIAA out of business. Oh No!

Truly unbelievable. The next natural course would be movies, would it not? Times are a changin'!

id imagine that the downloads will be in a very low quality, and if you want better youl'll still have to pay, there will always be price. Most artist know that the money to be made is from concert sales not albums, we will see how this goes.

Well you just sucked all the fun out of it bandphan, didn't you? Let it ride, and let us see what this venture may bring. It could be very good for us all. Free flowing (downloadable) music...I like that.

etree.org, bt.etree.org> bands that allow tapping, some of which is SBD, thats my main music source. I thought my tapping rig was sweet till some 20 year old kid sets up next to me with his 12k neumann mike, 5k da, and a mac book pro and 1k pc card with full breakaway. damm i was humbled quick

Hmmm. Interesting, but compatibility may be an issue.
