Re: barely legal
its legal cause of a loophole allowing you to make a copy for a friend when asked or whatever... since the site lets you choose the format and bitrate and charges for the bandwidth and not the music it passed russian courts...

Re: barely legal
I've grabbed so much music off that site it's not even funny.

Re: barely legal
Matty do you use a web payment service or a credit card? I am particularly wary of using a credit card to buy something online from a Russian website.

Re: barely legal
I use my debit card, they use a 3rd party billing company so I wouldn't worry about it, I've never had a problem, my friends and I have been using the site for at least 6 months now.

Re: barely legal
Not only that, most reputable credit card companies have protection against fraud. I had mine used for over 1000 dollars worth of stuff and Visa took care of it.

Re: barely legal
use a one time card... visas and mastercard both let you do that now i believe... you prepay and it has a set limit, its only active for like 24 hours and only for online purchases... i don't have the full info, but thats what the guys from penny arcade did, cause they were wary of it too...
that said, the site has EVERYTHING (all the random scandavian death metal i could want even), and its cheap... like 5-10cents a song... you can even get the uncompressed wav files if you want

Re: barely legal
I put $15 in an Allofmp3 account in July, and I'm not done yet. This site rocks.
