Ok, so yeah - I decided to try out this "eMusic.com" site, and you get a free 2 week trial where you can download 50 songs. Of course, I want to get the downloads done in a week and then cancel. lol.

I only have one problem... I have NO idea what to download. So, ya'll tell me what to download!

PC answer - I guess what music you would actually buy.
Honest answer - Whatever you choose
Selfish answer - Anything by Fragma and Klubbheads

Anything by the streets - the Album: 'a grand don't come for free', i say the album because you need to listen to it from start to end as it tells a story. :)

Whatever the hell tickles your fancy. I recommend Daft Punk, The Beastie boys and a little Ramnstein. I doubt they have it there, but I also advise you take a look and see if ya can find the Phantom of the Opera. Best Musical ever after War of the Worlds.

Rage against the Machine - Testify, Guerilla Radio and Killing in the Name are damn good tracks. If you like that sort of thing.

I own the 2-disc Special Collectors Edition of the movie, and have both the 1986 cast and the movie soundtracks. Both special collectors edition. And I disagree, it isn't the best musical ever - Wicked is, although Phantom is a close second.

Unfortuanately I come with no music advice, but I would like to warn you eMusic have excercised their right to sell on your details. (See the T&C.)

So, you might wanna consider whether you want to trust the people who reserved the right to sell on your details to give them to companies with decent privacy policies.
