I want to download some music and haven't a clue how to go about it. It's about twelve christmas pop hits from the seventies and i want to download them on to cd disc make an album of these christmas songs.
What is the best site for downloading music like this? Itunes HMV ? Can anyone help?

Okay here goes, i use Itunes 99p for a song usually £7.99 for an album

Firstly make yourself an account

Then it's pretty much find a song click buy and it downloads directly to ur PC or ipod/phone

to then put them on a disc create a playlist po in a cd and press burn

Thats my 3 easy steps if you need anymor help ask away or ask omeone better

If you like DRM by all means go with itunes, but if you like a bit of freedom then go with Amazon mp3.

Though Amazon is slightly cheaper, if you have to reboot your computer and loose all your songs without backing them up, iTunes already has them saved on their database, linked to your account. So you sign in, and you can re-download them free of charge! I used to use Amazon, but iTunes makes more sense to be honest.

I have lost songs that way and it is just a matter of asking Amazon to reactivate the download for you which they will gladly do. That is a very small price to pay to have DRM free music.

All iTunes music is DRM free and has been for quite a while.

iTunes or Zune store. Both as reliable as each other.

I use Amazon as it seems to be cheaper than others and has pretty good deals on with albums every week. Only down side is the chance of losing the files though and having to buy them again but thankfully that hasn't happened to me yet. It also places your music straight into Windows Media Player or iTunes as preferred a long with the album art, unlike Play.com
