>> Hello Bryan,
>>
>> Can you explain more about the website? I think Amazon is a cluttered 
>> site and I'm upset with them for making the kindle inaccessible.
>> I'd rather buy elsewhere if I can. Amazon's site is huge with hundreds of 
>> links, clutter, ads, and graphics that you get overwelmed with it using a 
>> screen reader!
>> In fact, I prefer the old fashioned way of cds and will do that as long 
>> as cds are available.
>> So as I checked that link out you gave, I was curious.
>> It seems to be an mp3 downloading site and you can search their catalog 
>> by different criteria like genre, release date, artist, etc.
>>
>> But can you say more? I assume you use the service. How much does music 
>> cost?
>> Can you buy by the song or album? Do you pay by the month to be a member 
>> and how does that work?
>> If you register with them, any  free benefits? Is this music service kind 
>> of like itunes? It appears that way.
>>
>> Thanks.
>> Ashley
