Yes, download Audacity.

A new discovery; TRPTK – The New Music Movement, DXD recordings, extremely well recorded.
The Maya Friedman album is a must have.

Have you tried this site?

It is not clear to me what their fee structure is. It appears you may have to pay a set fee for 'fast downloads' but there is no mention of what or if, each download costs.

Seems a little shady...

Hi,
Sorry for my late reply. It's not shady at all.. typical "take-whatever-you-like-until-they-shut-us-down" site. I'm using it, yes. No need for subscription if you don't want it. You need something like JDownloader. Copy links in it and there you go!

"Till they shut us down"? Are they licensed to download the music? Say what you will about copyright and music distribution, etc, but it's the law (and the way artists get paid, even if ever more pitifully these days). Apologies if I've missed it and it's a legit site paying royalties appropriately, but downloading from a site that isn't properly licensed is akin to walking out of a store with an album without paying for it. None of us would do that (I hope).

"until they shut us down" was juts my assumption, but again, maybe I'm wrong... time will tell... No need for apologies but if that's how you feel about it - then don't download. I didn't had the chance to ask whoever put this site online about concerns you have but I must say that I agree with you 100%...
Now, do I like to still things? - NO, if that is what you referred to ( I hope you didn't and in that case I apologize to you) .. Most of the time in our lives we get to chose whether or not... I've just found an internet site and shared it here with fellows AA'ers... If anyone is offended - sorry, not what I intended to and my message " don't hate the player - hate the game" was for that very reason.
If my first post with that link is inappropriate for whatever reason that is, it can be deleted.
What can I say, downloading things from internet is one of my week spots... developed in early stages of my life... probably puberty when internet was 56k speed dial-up modem over POTS... plus the environment I was growing up in and there you go!

Weirdcuba, I wouldn't like this to turn out into argument of any sort, so "If in doubt - just say NO" (Nancy Regan... I think...)
