Wow, I *am* into downloading shows. Did these come from eMusic?
 I've found a couple good (free) live shows for download on db etree, but it's mostly jamband crap. I did get a great Morning Jacket show and a pretty cool Man or Astroman show.
 
 Would love to hear a good Urge Overkill show. The show they played at the old 9:30 club was very memorable.

Here is a blog entry I wrote about AllOfMP3.com, which is cheaper, has a bigger selection (though not quite as indie as eMusic), and also has no DRM...

 Buying music from the Russkies is a blast.

doubt what i did had little to do with this... but the minute i found out dischord went with ITMS, provider  of ACC files DRMed for their protection, i shot off an email to both Dischord and eMusic suggesting the two should meet.

kosmo...which subscription do you use and how does it work if you want to get 5 songs more than your subscription? i like that they use 192 VBR lame files...basically what I rip at home.
