Walmart.com downloads .88 cents?

deacon42 · 7th April 2004, 21:06

I'm new to the site as well as the using mp3 so please excuse my stupidity on a couple of questions. I had a ton of cd's and put them on my computer but now I love the fact you can buy song for under a buck. i did a search and found ITUNES will not work with Winamp so had anyone gone to Walmart.com and used that site? Before I waste time I wanted to check with the masses out there to see if they will work on WA5..

erm ... itunes does work with winamp given that you are using the 3rd party plugin that enables you to do so.

Here is the link:

Its basic, but does the job. Per the usual no one really recommends music from music stores like that as they have DRM and shit .... yea.

[edit]oh, you need to have itunes and or quicktime installed, I forget which and don't feel like looking it up anymore.[/edit]

you need itunes installed, but i dont see what the big deal with that is.. you need itunes to buy the music anyway

as for wal-mart, i heard that it only works on wmp and that the quality is terrible (i didnt dl their music, but my friend did.. i personally hate wal-mart)

Or you can burn the songs to a CD (at least with iTunes m4p files; I don't know about Wal-mart - I've never used it) and rip them in your preferred format. You lose some quality, but how can you notice unless you got really good speakers on your computer?
