eMusic is a download service that sells DRM-free MP3s (though it's a subscription service), and they do offer the ability to re-download tracks.
(One qualification: It's limited in how many times you can re-download so that you don't use it as your personal file-transfer service to download the same album 20 times on every computer you or anyone you know owns, but assuming you don't abuse the ability to redownload it'll be there if you ever lose your files.)
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoeMusic are spamming scum. More details here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=566825 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=566825 http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=emusic+spam http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=emusic+spam I urge you most strongly not to use them.
- Gormo 17y agoI've been very happy with eMusic's service, but after reading this I checked my spam folder, and sure enough, a large amount of spam was sent to the unique email address I created for eMusic. It seems their music distribution is on the up-and-up. Such underhanded tactics to add to the bottom line make me wonder whether their legitimate business model really is sustainable.
