    I am quite sure it is legal, and the songs are 10 cents apiece, with all whole albums (that I have seen so far) at 99 cents maximum. Good deal.

    Just found it recently, when I was searching for "Candy and a Currant Bun."
    I'm pretty sure that that's the Russian site that is in trouble and which caused Monarch to post. The reason songs are so cheap is that they are not paying the artists and using some Russian legal gobbledegook to defend themselves.

    I'd be wary if I were you, though no-one has yet said they will chase down purchasers in other countries who acted in good faith. That may change now the balloon has gone up.

    I don't hold much of a candle for the music pigopolists, but artists getting short-changed worries me.

    EDIT: Oh, and Blodrast, albums are cheaper on iTunes if you buy the album entire - $9.99 I think in the US.
