        Is that how long you have to redeem the vouchers? Or do you have to spend the $10 credit by then too?

          You must spend the voucher by then…..Bandit wil delete any unused credit at the end of the promo period.

    Anyone else getting the error "Only alphanumeric characters allowed (no spaces)" when trying to set up a new account in the password field?

    Yes, I'm using alphanumeric characters. No, I'm not using spaces.

    I've tried IE8.0 and Firefox but get the same error in both.

    EDIT: It was actually the "username" the error was about, I had a space in it. However the error appeared above the password field, so I thought it was about that. Damn you ambiguous website design!

    • portmac on 12/12/2010 - 17:51

      yep, server is being hammered [ 5.50pm AEDST ] ….I have a 300MB album downloading, and it's coming in between 30kb/s and 50kb/s.

      Estimated time remaining 2 hours (using ADSL2).

      edit: down to 8kb/s.

      • sparkles on 12/12/2010 - 20:05

        Hehe, you're going well. My album is 88.5mb and is coming in at just under 3kbps. 5 hours remaining. LOL.

          I think after you click on buy, it prompts you to click on download.

          But you've already spent the credit, so you could wait to download for a few days, when things are quieter

  • techmate22 on 12/12/2010 - 18:00

    This is awesome, $30 free credit!! I don't seem to be having any download problems :) One question, would it work if I 'purchased' everything I wanted using the $30 today, then download them at a later date? My internet bandwidth is on its last straw at the moment…

    • retiredfeline on 12/12/2010 - 18:21

      The download is immediate upon clicking on Buy. I don't know if you can save the URL for later use.

      • MooGliSH on 12/12/2010 - 18:35

        It works for a little while at least, as stored in your download page

    Thank you

  • medium_tight on 12/12/2010 - 18:52

    my tips: download 1 song at a time to avoid the "server maintenance downtime msg"

    • MooGliSH on 12/12/2010 - 19:03

      Most of the time you'll use up far more credit that way

  • pilchard on 12/12/2010 - 18:55

    $50 from bandit in a fortnight. nice nice.

    can we expect 325+ coupons in a week or so? :D

  • vocadata on 12/12/2010 - 19:45

    For any Kiwi readers out there, 327-BANDIT and 329-BANDIT respond with the following on the Australian site:
    "This voucher is linked to the New Zealand site. Please switch to the New Zealand site and enter the code again to redeem."
    So it looks like these codes may be valid too.

  • CarnivalMonkey on 12/12/2010 - 20:48

    i actually used the credit to purchase a nick cave album for the 2nd time (already own it on cd) i am hoping the royalties make it back.

    • sparkles on 12/12/2010 - 20:54

      I wondered earlier when I was downloading my album as to whether the artists would receive royalties based upon what are effectively free downloads with no money changing hands.

      • odysseus on 12/12/2010 - 22:09

        I'd expect them too. The agreements to supply are different to the customer agreements. They're unlikely to have been a party to this offer, so back-end revenue is likely to be the same.

  • POWERevolution on 12/12/2010 - 21:51

    Sorry for noob question. What can you do with these credits? Can you get anything else other than music?
    What bitrate is music on Bandit.fm, ie. 320kbps or less?

    • portmac on 12/12/2010 - 22:34

      a) Buy digital copies of Music
      b) No
      c) 320kbps CBR

    • lovesabargain77 on 12/12/2010 - 22:43

      Besides mp3 music files, you can also purchase music video clips from Bandit.fm
      By the way if I was using my own money to purchase from their website, I wouldn't be all that happy with the congestion and slow download speed generated by these free offers

  • Xperia on 12/12/2010 - 22:53

    New Zealand codes don't work even after I switched country.

    Anyway..happy with $30 free credits and I downloaded all songs I wanted.

  • SomeGuyOnOzB on 13/12/2010 - 00:19

    TIP

    When I click on Buy, it then asks me to download.

    Instead, I re-enter the site address www.bandit.fm

    I can then at the top of the screen, click on the Downloads list

    It shows what I last bought and that it's sitting there, ready to download later.

    I will now wait download it sometime next week, when the server speed returns :)

    • chadiwrx on 13/12/2010 - 15:08

      Just a warning the album I bought last week I'm not able to download it today. The download link has vanished. I think the download link only remains active for a couple of days. The site is not so slow now as I just downloaded MOS Maximum Bass Ultimate 503mb it took 30min

  • retiredfeline on 13/12/2010 - 00:42

    Finally got a double album and a single album. Was like dialup days all over again. Fortunately I could leave it downloading in the background.

  • ZaFrOoNaLdO on 13/12/2010 - 03:32

    anybody knows any good compilation album of Oldies songs? 70s or 80s? I wanna buy one for my dad.. :P

    • yada on 13/12/2010 - 10:10

      The Ray Hadley 70's collection perhaps? (not sure if it's on there though)

    • Buddy on 13/12/2010 - 10:36

      hello ZaFrOoNaLdO,

      just signed up to post a reply to your question :D recommend getting Blank and Jones - So 80s vol.1+2+3! clearly the title says it there… 80s music. hope you get that for your dad. im sure he will enjoy it.

    • SomeGuyOnOzB on 13/12/2010 - 13:21

      Doh, they used to have ABBA: Thank you for the Music for $17 but it's gone.

      They still have ABBA: The Albums; 99 tracks for $37

      Also ABBA: The Albums - bonus track versions; 110 tracks for $57

      Warning: The site is really slow right now, even for retrieving catalog listings etc

  • jg3374 on 13/12/2010 - 09:39

    Has anyone came across the latest Christmas album that's for sale in Myer atm on Bandit or know how I can locate it on the website. I typed 'Christmas' into the search bar but it's only brought up the old fuddy duddy ones.

      'all i want for christmas' is the newest one

      • Chris McMahon on 13/12/2010 - 15:06

        I don't know about "good" but I got:
        - Daft Punk TRON: Legacy (International Version) $17.00
        - The Chemical Brothers Further $9.02

        • Zaia on 13/12/2010 - 19:59

          Yeah, I was keen on getting the Daft Punk score, but listened to the previews, was too much orchestra, not enough Daft Punk in my opinion. Grabbed "One Day as a Lion (EP)" for about $5, got around $8 left. Can we just keep making new accounts and get infinite amount of songs?

  • binladen on 13/12/2010 - 15:23

    Does the $30 credit balance from the vouchers have an expiry date(return to zero after Monday 13 December 2010)?

    • portmac on 13/12/2010 - 17:08
