Bitrate

One of the things that made allofmp3 stand out for me was the fact that you had the option to select different bitrates for tracks.

Does anyone know if any of the alternate sites offer this?

Or otherwise, which offers the best choice for 320 kbps downloads?

mp3sparks offers the same bitrates as allofmp3 - well, not sure if the full range but certainly 320 as it's the rate I use. If you have had the option to migrate from allofmp3 then make the jump as it's painless.

heh, that is because MP3Sparks IS AllofMP3.com. The site is a clone. Same user database, same catalog, same underlying code. Same everything.

But how do I fund an account with mp3sparks....and I know cos I've read all the other threads and am still waiting for the magic button to appear

So I suppose my question really was, what's the best out of the rest?

Sorry - cannot help you with recommendations for other sites as I've only used allofmp3 and mp3sparks. From reading on this forum, it seems the 'magic button' to jump to sparks is appearing broadly in line with spend ie the bigger spenders were first. I made the switch a few weeks back when the button was suddenly there (I had spent somewhere around $225 at that time and been a member since 2005).
Sorry I cannot really help.

Hi undertheredsky.

I use 10 other Russian/Ukrainian sites and my 2 favourites are MusicMP3.ru/GoldenMP3.ru (sister sites) and MP3Stor.

Thanks Solaris

Will give these a look whilst hoping that allofmp3/mp3sparks open up at some point
