[Electronics-talk] Happy New Year! and Amazon's Cloud Player

[cheez]

Hi, Ashley,
I knew I'd get answers from this vast listership, to which I'm grateful for. 
I will be trying the tips, after I get this browser business straightened 
out.
I actually listen to music on my iPod more than my laptop.  The music is 
there so I don't have to pull out the iPod.
You asked, "Can you buy cds from Amazon or just downloaded music? How much 
does their
music cost and can you buy by the song? If not, I assume you buy per the
album."
You can buy either one song or the whole album, either on a CD or as an MP3 
file.
Individual songs cost from $0.85 to $1.29.  Some may be on sale starting at 
$0.65 per song, and whole albums for $3 to $9.
The Cloud stores all your songs--and other digital stuff you may have.  Kind 
of like an off-sight backup system.  The Cloud Player is web based, which 
means, you can access your music from any computer--that is, if you don't 
work for the state of Arizona.
Whatever music player installed on your computer that is your default 
player, can be used to play your songs.

Vince
