I just accessed my virgin mp3sparks account that I have been funding like crazy after discovering Tor. There is a transfer option similar to the one many have received on allofmp3 to switch to sparks. It asks me to transfer my account to sparks even though it is already a sparks account. Has anyone encountered this? Not sure if I should go ahead. Is it possible that they are referring to my allofmp3 account (registered with same name but different email and username) which has 50 bucks in it? It does specifically say that my allofmp3 account will be deleted after the move. To reiterate, this is all in the balance section of my mp3sparks account not allofmp3 account (which I can't access for now).

Hi etherbunny,
I do not think you are the first person to see this (ref attached link post No. #2419; http://www.aom3.org/forum/showthread.php?t=101&page=2). With these cases I think that they were dealing with already transferred mp3sparks accounts, and not a virgin one like yours. If you are happy to keep funding your mp3sparks account the way you are currently doing it (i.e. with Tor), I would ignore the link. On the other hand, if you transfer to an 'invited' mp3sparks account, you might get more payment options?? If it were me, I would be tempted to accept the invitation, as I do not know of any examples where anyone has lost their credit after transferring an account (so there is nothing to lose in doing it). On the other hand, if things are working for you at the moment, why rock the boat. Probably better to wait for some more advice. Sorry I can not be of more definite use,
Cheers,
Dave C

Hi Dave C

Thanks for the link. I had not seen this. I went ahead and hit the transfer button. I went back later and, of course, it was gone. Not sure what, if any, effect this had on my account.

I don't suppose you have noticed if you can now add credit without having to use the Tor thing?
Cheers,

As I mentioned above, this was on mp3 sparks, not allofmp3. The transfer tab was on mp3sparks for mp3sparks (seems kind of incestuous ). BTW, I have been downloading today with my allofmp3 account but have had access only with the alltunes software.

It's funny. Ever since I used Tor the first time and added money, I have not needed it since. Even prior to this transfer thing.
