okierambler Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Here's an idea: when we post our latest downloads, let's tack on a rating for the one's we've actually heard enough to form an opinion. I suggest using one to five stars (hate it to love it), since that's the system used by emusic. Anthony Braxton Eugene (1989) Peter Brotzmann, etc. Up and Down the Lion-Revised **** Hamiet Bluiett Young Warrior, Old Warrior **** Marc Copland Night Whispers **** Ellery Eskelin Jazz Trash Herbie Hancock Mwandishi ***** Gerry Hemingway The Whimbler Steve Lacy Soprano Sax ***** Daniel Levin Quartet Live at Roulette **** Misha Mengelberg Solo Marial Solal w/ Dave Douglas Rue De Seine John Tichicai Grandpa's Spells ** Ken Vandermark, etc. c.o.d.e. Mal Waldron The Memorial Album **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave James Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I'm pretty unhappy with the way eMusic has started handling popular recordings. I was going to DL two or three Eagles songs the other night, but everything they have available is on an "album only" basis. That forces you to buy an entire release when that's not what you want. I don't know, what these guys seem to be best at is coming up with new ways to make them harder to deal with. This used to be best deal out there. At one point, I was getting 90 DL's a month for $20.00. It's now down to 50 for the same $20.00. Then it was albums that "cost" more credits that there were tunes and now this. I'm staying the course for now, but a few more tweaks like these and I'm history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnymax Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 It's my understanding that the record labels, not Emusic, dictate the "album-only" format, as well as the policy of charging 12 credits for titles that have less than 12 tracks.

Uncle Skid Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 I can understand the logic in charging 12 credits for titles that have less than that -- if I download 45 minutes (for example) of music, does it really matter if that time consists of 3 tracks, or 12? Album only on certain tracks not so much -- I fail to see how that is much different than 45-rpm "singles" that were available for purchase for less than the price of the entire album. All of that aside, I find myself checking Amazon first before downloading _anything_ from eMusic. There has been more than a few times when Amazon was more economical.

mjzee Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 I downloaded one of my favorite long-lost albums: A soulful classic of R&B! Nothing but covers, so it shouldn't have been so good, but it is!!! I had it on an ultra-cheapo LP from Columbia's Harmony label, titled Ooh-Poo-Pah-Doo: Ebay What a great cover, too!
