well thats isnt fair and fair at the same time.

it isnt fair in the sense that once you buy it, you cant get rid of it by selling it and making up a certain portion of your money back.

it is fair in the sense that, once its sold, technically you can still have a copy of those mp3s so technically you sold a pirated duplicate or you keeping the pirated duplicate and selling the original.

hmmmm this is a new one.

but nobody i know ever tried selling mp3s they downloaded.

Music is nothing more than 1's and 0's on a computer, with no unique identification given to it.

Its not a physical object that could be say sold on its unique physical identification.

KingPin4035d ago

i know what you saying.

but thats like saying reselling cds is ok <even though you can buy it, copy it, sell it and still have the music> but reselling mp3s is wrong.

cds are a physical object but the fact is that you can still rip it/copy it/ duplicate it and they ok with that.

like i said, its fair and it isnt at the same time. depends which side of the river you on.

Hmm. I wonder if I'm still allowed to sell my CDs... ;)

It would indeed be sad day when music cd's are done away with. Sometimes you don't miss around you, till it's gone.

Anyone notice the average song count in albums go down over the years.

fatstarr4034d ago

this is retarded.

very retarded idea
very retarded service

like a user cant copy music or burn it to a track..

it would be a good idea if it were for all content
and for dlc content and addons and such.

putting real currency to bits made of 0's and 1's was the smarted and dumbest thing the world has ever done.

What would be cool would be developing some way to add a random hash that uniquely identifies songs to purchases, so if two hashes are the same, you can spot the perp (i.e. if someone else other than yourself has the song).

Google Music: Best Music Hub For Android

CrazRoid.com - Google Music is a relatively new addition to the Play store, giving you the chance to buy music direct from Google and download it to your device. It’s a cloud-based service that gives you access to your purchases on any Android device, but is not just limited to new songs you’re buying. All the music already stored on your phone is also available in the Google Music app, while you can also download the Google Play Music Manager from music.google.com which will automatically scan the music stored on your PC or Mac (iTunes data) and give you access to 20,000 tracks in your cloud storage for free. There’s a built-in audio player for every song in your collection, and the app does a pretty good job of displaying album art – something which many of its competitors fail to achieve. In this mini tutorial we’ll guide you through Google Music, and show you how you can be listening to your song collection in a matter of minutes.
