Website Updates

2009-10-28T17:53:00.000-07:00

It's been a while since I posted anything, and updated the site at all if I'm being honest, so you will be pleased to know that I have made some changes to the cheap MP3 music archive.

I realised that the pages in this section were hard to use and made it difficult to find the songs/albums/artists you were looking for. Therefore, I have added pagination to each of the lettered pages and the artists are now ordered by popularity (with a handy star rating system!).

Please feel free to let me know what you think, and any suggestions you may have for the site in general.

New "unlimited music" service to launch

2009-06-16T00:41:00.000-07:00

In the latest attempt to crack-down on illegal music downloads through services such as file-sharing, p2p networks, Universal Music have teamed up with Virgin Media to offer a monthly subscription service which will allow users to download unlimited amounts of music.

The fee is thought to be around £10-£15 when launched, and when it is, check back here for a review of this unlimited music service.

Your legal questions answered

2009-05-28T18:36:00.000-07:00

The question I am most often asked about the MP3 websites I review is "Are their services legal?". It is a very valid question, as you would not think it would be possible to download music so cheaply.

But, as this link will testify and explain in more detail, the distribution laws from the country these sites are based in are different, making it legal for you to download cheap MP3s for personal use!

Beat the iTunes price increase!

2009-04-17T16:01:00.000-07:00

If you hadn't heard, iTunes, Apples amazingly popular digital music download service, has recently increased the prices of the 33 most popular songs in it's Top 100 seller list. This price increase means that instead of paying 99 cents for one of these tracks, you will now have to fork out $1.25.

While we realise that this isn't a huge amount of money, it is worth highlighting the fact that for $1.25 on LegalSounds, for example, you can get a whole album! Check out our reviews of LegalSounds and other websites that offer cheap MP3 music downloads on our MP3 website review page.

Get Ten FREE MP3 Downloads!

2009-04-16T05:13:00.000-07:00

As another incentive to sign up (as if one was needed), Legal Sounds now give you credit for 10 free songs after you have registered. You can use this credit for any MP3 track in their vast collection. Check out my review of LegalSounds, or if you're already interested, visit their site.

This bonus is probably in response to the fact that MP3 Sale also offer 10 free songs to encourage you to use their website. You can read my review of MP3 Sale here, or go straight to MP3Sale.ru to check them out for yourself!

New MP3 website added

2009-04-04T02:41:00.000-07:00

I have recently found a new website that allows you to download the latest songs in MP3 format for only 10 Euros per track.

You can read my review of MP3 Sale here.

MP3 and iPod Compatibility

2009-02-18T15:14:00.000-08:00

One question I get asked often is "Can the music bought on these cheap MP3 websites be used on my iPod"?

And you'll be pleased to know, the answer is "Yes"! There are no catches to the MP3 files available to buy on the websites I review - they are standard MP3 files that you can play on your computer, burn to CD, or play on your iPod!

MP3 Fiesta Back Up and Running

2009-01-06T19:49:00.000-08:00

Whatever the problem was preventing users from topping up their balance on the MP3 Fiesta website, it is now resolved and you can continue to use their excellent service trouble-free!

MP3 Fiesta Payment Problems

2008-10-09T00:42:00.000-07:00

It has come to my attention that for the past few weeks MP3 Fiesta has had problems when depositing money into your account.

If you have money in your account you are still able to download music as usual, but their system does not currently allow you to top-up your balance with extra credit.

If they resolve this issue I will keep you updated, but for now I would recommend downloading your MP3 music from another site.

Soundike.com - Business as usual

2008-09-26T11:46:00.001-07:00

Following my post yesterday regarding the domain problems with Soundike.com, there issues have now been resolved and so their usual website is back up and running with all your account and deposit information as they were before the change.

The Soundike Website

2008-09-25T12:26:00.000-07:00

I have had a few enquiries recently regarding why the Soundike.com website is not working. I have been in touch with a representative of the site and due to some issues with their domain, they are currently running from SoundDike.com (notice the double 'd'). As far as I know, your account should be intact and you won't have lost any money from this change.

New Releases

2008-09-03T16:32:00.000-07:00

It's been a while since I posted anything so I thought I would come back with a helpful post that should make it easier for you to find the song you want quickly and easily.

Every MP3 site reviewed has a "New Releases" section in which they list the latest tracks added to their ever-expanding database of songs. This can be useful for when you want to download a song that has only just been released, so it may be worth bookmarking your favourite page from those below to make sure you know exactly when the song you want is available!

Soundike - http://www.soundike.com/ (their home page)
Iomoio - http://www.iomoio.com/ (also the home page)
MP3 Fiesta - http://www.mp3fiesta.com/statistic/newReleases/
Legal Sounds - http://www.legalsounds.com/justAdded

New MP3 website reviewed - Soundike.com

2008-04-28T14:25:00.000-07:00

If you have already been to the MP3 website reviews page, you will have already noticed that a new review has been added to the list. And not only that, it has gone straight to number 1!

The website in question is Soundike.com and what makes it so good is not just one thing, but the fact that it covers all the basis so well - it's service is fast; the music is cheap (only 15¢ per song); and the site looks amazing, combining a retro style with a modern design.

So if you are looking to download cheap MP3 songs (and who isn't?!), check out Soundike.com!

Iomoio is back

2008-01-04T13:10:00.000-08:00

I am pleased to let you know that Iomoio is back up and running after a few difficulties with the site.

Their music archive, speed, and prices remains the same as ever, meaning you get a great service and excellent value for money.

New Payments Structure on LegalSounds

2007-12-15T17:06:00.000-08:00

LegalSounds.com have recently changed the deposit amounts for which you can top up your Legal Sounds balance. They have removed the $20 option, and introduced a new $39 deposit amount option - which is random to say the least!

However it does provide a better range of options when you decide to top up your account, as they have removed the $20 option in favor of this $39 amount.

Iomoio temporarily removed

2007-09-16T02:54:00.001-07:00

It seems that Iomoio is having technical problems with their payment processing system, so I have temporarily removed them from the mp3 website review list.

I will let you know when they are back up-and-running, but in the mean-time, I urge you to check out LegalSounds, as they offer the same service for a similar price.

Unauthorised advertising

2007-07-22T06:02:00.000-07:00

I was recently contacted by someone (who didn't leave their name or email address)

stop posting links on p2p searches for all titles and artists, or I will ... post your individual address across the web

I honestly have no idea what this person is talking about - I personally do not use p2p networks, and wouldn't even know where to begin to advertise on them. I certainly don't condone spamming of any sorts.

If you are the one that is placing links to buycheapmp3s.com via this method - please stop.

If you are the person that contacted me, please email me again and we can discuss the best way to approach the problem.

2007-07-05T13:53:00.000-07:00

AllOfMP3 Closes

2007-07-04T17:12:00.000-07:00

Well, one of the most well known MP3 download sites, AllOfMp3.com, was shut down this week. It seems that it has been a victim of Russia's attempt to gain entry to the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Bad news, you may think, for the other sites reviewed on BuyCheapMp3s.com, but I have been reliably informed by a contact at Iomoio.com that they are operating under a different license to AllOfMp3 and so are here to stay, so you have no need to worry.

Woohoo!

Iomoio.com

2007-06-03T04:25:00.000-07:00

Hi, welcome to the first post of what is (hopefully) going to be a regularly updated blog about the latest MP3 news and updates on any offers the sites reviewed on buycheapmp3s.com are providing.

So, in that vain, I will use this opportunity to point you in the direction of the latest review I have added to the site - a review of Iomoio.com - which is my new favorite site from which to download music!
