Hmmmmm, I'm not sure what you consider a crazy price for one song. Usually a song is around a dollar or a little more. Maybe you are looking at the album price instead of the song price? I'm not sure what you are wanting these downloads for. If you are just wanting to hear a song and enjoy it now and then maybe you could look up the song on youtube or the christian version. It used to be called Godtube but they changed the name and I can't remember what they changed the name to, I'm sure you could look it up. I do not go to either of these sites and therefore cannot speak about their accessibility. I think there is an accessible youtube though. I'm sorry, I do not know the website for that. I also do not know how well it works or doesn't work. I do not think you can download these music videos but you can play them and listen to them for free. Another cheap alternative to listening to Christian music is through pandora. Although you cannot just hear any song you want on demand, I enjoy the radio stations it creates. However, it is not easy to use and you must have a sighted person help you get set up with an account and then you should be able to do the rest on your own through www.pandora.com/backstage
It's been a very long time since I used pandora and it takes a bit to learn. Now, for downloading songs for an ipod or something, other than the ones mentioned here, I'm not aware of any other sources. There are some musicians who do not want their music downloadable so if you cannot find them, this may be why. I know that sounds strange. Most musicians allow their music to be sold as downloads. :) Christina On Nov 14, 2009, at 8:56 AM, May McDonald wrote: > > Yes, mp3 files are ok, in fact any file type is ok, smile.
