| 706508 | 2008-09-21 04:33:00 | Ah, OK. I think buying MP3s from Amazon requires US citizenship so this is probably why you're having trouble there. You can buy MP3s from the NZ music website Amplifier (http://www.amplifier.co.nz) however I'm sure they'd have a very limited catalogue. | sal (67) | ||
| 706509 | 2008-09-21 04:38:00 | A lot of stuff you CAN buy on Amazon from NZ, but it clearly states that MP3's are for US Citizens only. | Bantu (52) | ||

As I understand it, you can get around any restriction and buy whatever you want using This Site (www.shipbuktu.com) to process your purchase. It costs, but if you can't get it any other way............. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

There's no FAQ's, and the home page mentions they're working on an alternative service to NZ since the delays at Christmas...hello that's 9 months ago! Don't know if I would trust it based on that, I'd rather just use a friend in USA to forward it on on my behalf... probably cheaper too. |

| 706515 | 2008-09-22 08:32:00 | I've just been through the process of getting MP3s online. I started with Amazon, but got nowhere. Then I tried this site http://www.shopnow.co.nz/ which links to a site called alloffmp3.org. You need to register and set up some credit, then each track costs US$0.15. Seems to work fine, though the navigation engine is a bit archaic and the database is huge, so it can take a while to find what you want. | TideMan (4279) | ||

Why pay for MP3 tracks when downloads with "Lime Wire" are free? :confused: :confused: |

| 706517 | 2008-09-22 10:39:00 | Depends if Lime Wire has any tracks you wanna download, I guess. Not everything you want in this life is free, unfortunately. | TideMan (4279) | ||
