In response to "She wants some specifics. Basically she's brand new to this and knows nothing about downloading MP3s. -- nm" by the liioulu with 90, in May, in Chicago

The two main legit sources are iTunes and Amazon. LaLa allows downloads, too.

If she has the songs on disc already she can rip the disc into iTunes.

If she's looking for free music, well, those sets aren't legfit and may not be entirely safe. But I have zero (no, not sarcasm) experience with any of the sites offering pirated music.

Responses:

Free if they are legit, but mostly cheaper than iTunes if there is such a thing. I alrady suggested eMusic, but wondering what else there was. - the liioulu with 90, in May, in Chicago May 24, 18:07 5
- Free and legit generally don't go together. Prices are pretty consistent as they are set (mostly) by the rights holders. - TWuG May 24, 18:11
- Amazon's MP3 stores is usually cheaper than ITunes. (and the Amazon MP3 downloader will auto-import the songs it downloads into ITunes for you) -- nm - ty97 May 24, 18:10 3
  - Amazon also has 100 albums for $5 each month (some are good too!). Watch for STers to post random Amazon album deals too -- (link) - ty97 May 24, 18:14
  - Amazon, BTW, is much more user friendly. I'd pay more to use them over the iTunes store. -- nm - TWuG May 24, 18:12 1
    - Okay, thanks all. I sent her the info. -- nm - the liioulu with 90, in May, in Chicago May 24, 18:13
