Thank you so much for www.beatport.com. Finally a site that you can legally pay for an MP3 that comes in a MP3 format that can be used directly to VDJ. No burning of WMA's then ripping back into MP3. The tracks come tagged correctly, but not from the file name. All I do is put it in Music Match 9.0 use the supertagging feature and rename the file extension from the tag. This is beautiful!

Thank You!

In the US I don't think beatport or any of these are legal. Take a okk at the disclaimer you have to agree to on beatport:

Well, that could be mighty unfortunate in the USA, BUT! I did spot this on beatport's FAQ:

"What are the limitations to the music I download?
Files downloaded from Beatport can be listened to on your computer or portable digital audio devices. Also, the files can be burned to disc for listening on CD players. As per our end-user agreement, you CANNOT trade Beatport files with anyone else. This is a community of DJ's and artists and we do not support the sharing of files. Please respect the copyright and your role as the end user. (See the FAQ 'Can I share files with my friends?' for more information.)

Can I DJ with files purchased from Beatport?
Yes, buying a track from Beatport is just like buying a record from the record store. The same legal implications are in effect. Beatport has taken the time to create agreements with all labels involved with our site and provide you with digital, legal alternatives to the music you may have purchased on record previously."

As stated, it's like buying a record from a music store, if someone turns up asking you to churn up your mp3's cause there not legal, keep your recorded list on beatport to shove up their noses ;)

Don't you meant AllofMP3.com instead? The terms you pasted are from AllofMP3.com I think.

www.gomusic.ru is also very cheap but probably illegal since it is so cheap. I hope it isn't.

I get a "The page cannot be found" for the list of stores. :-( I want to see it, sounds good.

Beatport is 100% legal, but Allofmp3 certainly isn't. And there's no way I'd even trust those dodgy Russian sites with my card details even if it were legal.

Traxsource is the best download site for house music, without a doubt. New version launches next week too.
