itunesvs Rhapsody vs Amazon mp3 s

skysidhe · 02-22-2009, 06:26 PM

I want to dowload singles but I can't decide which service I want to use.

Is there any difference really?

Amazon gives you higher quality, gives you mp3s (which is a more standard file type than AAC from iTunes), and has no copy restrictions on the files. I use them for almost everything.

Don't know a thing about Rhapsody.

I also like Amazon for the fact of not having to worry about having a particular program installed. I just have to use a web browser.

I like Rhapsody because I can rent music from them instead of buying it. I've have such rotten luck with mp3 players, and am so lax about doing data backups, that it is a sensible solution for me. However, my iPhone doesn't support that function (of course), so I'm now rethinking.
