Used CD's are very cheap, espeically on Amazon. In most cases its cheaper to buy the CD and download to your Pod than it is to download direct.

i'm a big fan of buying used dvd's.
do they sell them at newbury, too? i've been stocking up at fye because you can get some good stuff supercheap there (good example $5.99 for no country for old men). |

They have tons of used DVDs at Newbury. I think they start at $3 or so (although I'm sure anything good will cost more) |

Many used titles on amazon r under 5 bucks plus shipping 2.98 equals 7.98 but rememba U need to pay Use tax on UR internet purchases
My last two was Motorhead essential 2cds for 4.98+2.98=7.96 anf Neptune Gone Lake .99+2.98 = 3.97 but 14/4 = 3.50 + 22 for the sales tax = 3.77 thats cheap |
