allofmp3, still a way to pay?

[what4]

Setting aside the valuable considerations in a previous post, I have a modest balance at allofmp3 and would like to add a bit to it to make it usable.

Is there still a way to do that? The methods I've looked into seem to be blocked.

Why not just toss your money out of a window? It will end up in the same place as giving any to allofmp3 at this point.

Dunno if you've read the news, but the Russian gov't has to shut that puppy down. Soon. It was a condition of joining the WTO, because (as I'm sure will come as a shock to you) allofmp3 didn't pay anybody apart from (possibly) a few Russian artists.

Here's a thought -- how about buying some music from an outlet (like an indie CD store, or iTunes, or CDBaby) where the artist will, in point of fact, actually see at least SOME money on the deal, rather than the Russian mob getting 95% of the money?

for real CDs, i buy at yourmusic.com but then again, i'm more into jazz. their rock and pop collection is not very good.

I like to break into Best Buy and steal my music the old fashioned way. Plus Best Buy always has the best five finger discounts.
