[...] Amazon Doesn’t Want to Sell Music to Pirates A music only torrent indexer, Coda.fm stands out from other sites with its clean design and innovative features. One of these features is a link to buy the various albums on Amazon, after downloading them on BitTorrent and enjoying the sample. Surprisingly enough, Amazon objects to getting business this way and has taken action. [...]

Anyone remember when Amazon ads were on the-realworld.de? I do and Amazon refused to put ads on TRW’s replacement.

Who can by stuff nowadays with price hikes on cigs and various foods? Seriously. Cost of music is figurative, doesn’t exist, its cost only exist person to person.

OK, not only are the Amazon links still up on the Coda website, but they still work when you click on them. Im using IE and I tried 4 different albulms and all of the Amazon links brought me to the Amazon website showing said album. Can others confirm? It is beyond my conmrehension why a company would shut down free advertising to sell their products. Wow!

That’s fine by me. Pirates/fans should be buying the albums directly from their local record store or the artists anyway.

Facts:
1)Some lossless sound better than some CDs
2)Pirates are willing to pay for certain music
3)Artist leechers must learn that a n artwork it’s not a product.

You got them? now to MPAA RIAA etc. Please read the blogs around the world and realize that something has to change. Seriously you are losing a great opportunity chasing ghosts.
People love music and the artists listen to those people instead of hanging them in the public plaza for everyone to see.

I still love Amazon, they blow away their competition, IMO. Their prices are awesome especially their deals. Their MP3 deal of the day rocks – I get a few complete mp3 albums for usually about $2 a week, can’t beat that. I track the deal at the following site (its the first one on the page):

or you can go directly to just the deal here:
