That's just the sort of thing I was looking for (the thinking before I buy will be a great help too).


Another iTMS newbie question:

Does the store keep track of your purchases so that if you accidently delete a file you can download it again for free?

Nope, I wish it was so. That is the drawback of the iTunes music store.

theres a realy easy way to do this! -
just make a new playlist called wishlist or wat ever you want... and then go to the iTMS and drag the song you want to buy (eventualy) into the play list, you get the 30 second preview of the song and theres a buy now icon beside it to make it realy easy! then you can just go in and buy some of the songs you want.

I didn't even know that... cool. In terms of the record of songs you buy, although you can not re-download them, if your download becomes interrupted, they will continue downloading once your internet is back up.

Those 30 second previews sure beat Amazon! I'd given up trying to sample new music so haven't bought anything in ages, now I can really check something out before I buy it. I know its obvious but this is such a bonus for me. I'm restraining myself til the end of the month by not signing up for an account.

That sounds a pretty good solution, the only problem is though I want a list that I can access from different computers. Then I can add them to the list whilst at work (on my work PC) and then buy them when I get home (on my Mac).

Couldn't you make an iMix with the songs you plan to buy?
