Ok I need more clarity. First off I want to apologize for any ignorance on my part, as I still have about a month before I make the switch.
So like I said, I plan on buying my imac G5 within the next month, so of course I'm researching as much as I can about what programs are best to use with a mac, and what programs are easily compatible with the mac. Right now, as a life long PC user, I use Musicmatch for all my MP3's. I don't have any type of portable mp3 player, but soon after I get my mac, I will probably get an ipod mini.
So back to my question. When I get my mac, what is better to use for my mp3's (playing, recording, downloading, etc...) Napster does offer a nice price, $14.95/month for unlimited downloads, while according to what I have read, itunes charge .99 per song. Napster does sound cheaper, but is there anything that I'm missing that itunes can offer. The way I figure it, is if at .99 per song and I want an entire album, (20-22 songs) that would cost me $20-$22. I did notice that you could purchase a complete album like if you were to buy it at the store, but what about if I want a custom album. You know like random artist on one CD?
I would appreciat all your feedback in helping me decide. Thanks.
