eMusic has a killer introductory offer going on right now. They are offering a 14 day free trial during which you can download 50 MP3s...
What a concept... downloading music for free on the Internet - legally!
eMusic does require that you sign up for their service and provide a credit card number, but if you cancel within 14 days, they will not charge your card.
The selection is much slimmer than iTunes or some of the other big names, but I was able to find well over fifty tracks that were appealing.
If you are into jazz, blues, indie, or "out of the mainstream" music, you might find that eMusic is a great deal.
They provide 30 second clips of every track, so you can taste before you "buy." Their monthly subscriptions seem very favorably priced relative to buying CDs.
I was going to sign up as an affiliate, since they have an affiliate program, but I decided that it wasn't worth the hassle. Also, I don't like affiliate applications that are not SSL encrypted, and ask you how many hits your site receives. It's not like they are doing me a favor to allow me to be an affiliate - I would be the one who is spending my time and money to market for them.
Anyway, it still seems like a pretty sweet deal - 50 tracks for free. I'd suggest you jump on before they get smart and make the trial less generous.
