Top Cheap Russian AllofMP3 Alternatives
The Russian government has closed down AllofMP3 and those who are trying to access its sister site, MP3Sparks, or another replacement may be disappointed that the site also seems to have disappeared. But never fear, those Russians have plenty of alternatives. We take a look at some of them.
There were roughly 6 million customers who, up until recently, were enjoying great value and service at AllofMP3 but following pressure from the United States over Russia’s World Trade Organization (WTO) membership, they are looking for replacements. MP3Sparks.com seemed to be the best replacement but as of this morning, the site appears to have disappeared – it’s unknown if this is a temporary situation.
In the meantime, we thought we could take a look at some other Russian music sites, offering cheap music to the masses.
