Where to buy MP3s from legally aside from Amazon?

[lethargic_man]

In common, I suspect, with some of you, I've been boycotting Amazon, where possible, for some while, until they improve the appalling ways they treat their workers. Yes, Amazon is very convenient, and frequently very cheap, but that cheapness comes at a moral price I am unwilling to pay any more.

However, nowhere else seems to have a tail just as long as Amazon's, and in particular I'm struggling to find an alternative outlet to purchase obscure music track-by-track legally and cheaply. I can google online MP3 shops, but given the history of MP3 piracy, I'm unwilling to take any random outlet I've never heard of as legal. So, MP3 generation, where do you go to buy your music when you're not going to Amazon?

When I had the same issue, and didn't get much help from my DW circle, as most people suggested outlets that only sell physical CDs, I poked around a bit on my own and discovered 7digital. They're selling mp3s for about £1 a track, which is not the cheapest, but so far they seem to have a good selection and I haven't run into any technical issues. And they are DRM-free, plain mp3s that you own forever.
