Those of you who are sick of paying .99 cents for a song, yet feel slightly guilty ripping off quality music from struggling and underground artists using illegal downloading programs and torrents, Amie Street Music is a perfect alternative. Amie Street is an online music store organized similar to itunes, except way less corporate and significantly cheaper.
At Amie Street, most songs began very cheap or even free, and the price increases as the popularity of the song does. Recommendations also play a large role in the organization of the website. To encourage users to recommend music to friends, Amie Street gives money back to users when they recruit friends. The site also recommends its own favorites as a way to promote music and encourage users to listen to some of their own favorites and spread the love of quality music. Similar to lastfm or the genius sidebar, Amie Street analyzes your music choices and becomes familiar with your taste, making accurate suggestions for your next purchases.
The site also has a weekly newsletter and consistently updated blog to keep users in the loop of updates and suggestions. For a more personal music buying experience with a focus on lesser known artists and underground labels, Amie Street is the ideal online music store.
