I thought that i tunes let you download as many times as you want once you pay for a track... my annoyance is I tunes doesn't have a refresh my library option so if you have paid for tracks it remembers and replaces them if you loose them I shouldn't have to keep track of every track i ave purchased in order to get them back. I also think that 99c a track is still too much, no cheaper to buy an album worth of tracks and I don't even get a disc. real cds still sound better than downloads a home, of course i still enjoy my vinyl collection as well so I'm a throwback of course i still have a 2 channel pioneer system sitting here in front of me pioneer amp bose 2.1 bookshelf speakers, technics turntable ect lol :)
