    you can create multiple accounts, therefore unlimited money? :D

    hmmm i guess this time was more popular judging from slow download speeds. last time was fine.

  • Amanda856 on 11/12/2011 - 21:52

    Thanks OP, got the new Ministry of Sound Running Trax album :)

  • peeweekathi on 11/12/2011 - 22:51

    Groovy! Thanks so much:)

  • jammy2006 on 11/12/2011 - 23:09

    Having some huge issues trying to download a 95mb album. The download goes around 50kb/s and is always interrupted before it can finish. Therefore I cannot download the entire 95mb before the download stops. Have tried three computers, and two internet connections with the same results.

    • ragflan on 11/12/2011 - 23:34

      Their servers are overloaded. Everyone's having issues.

    • retiredfeline on 11/12/2011 - 23:35

      Yes, I'm having the same issue. Have a good night's sleep and try again later when their servers are less loaded. You should be able to redo the download by going to your Download History.

      • nulled on 12/12/2011 - 01:42

        Does it allow you to re-download the song you have bought, in case you lose/delete your previous downloaded song ?

        • retiredfeline on 12/12/2011 - 01:55

          I sure hope so. Otherwise there'll be a lot of stroppy people, not just OzBargainers. I'm sure we are not the only ones suffering from overloaded servers.

        • JimJim on 12/12/2011 - 10:22

          If a download is incomplete, you can re-do it via your download page in your account. If something happens to your computer, I think you can email them and get your downloads again.

    Thank you, "The Great Australian Songbook" for $2.

  • Funkdafied on 12/12/2011 - 07:55

    Tried downloading again this morning and got 3mb/s :)

      Eminem's Recovery for 12.99.

  • morini on 12/12/2011 - 08:43

    I really wish they'd have more non-mainstream stuff. They don't even seem to have the White Stripes or Ministry.

    Boo, expired now.
    edit: is it not expired yet for others? Theres no credit in my accounts now.

    • Ughhh on 12/12/2011 - 17:04

      Weird my second account which still had $30 credit left, it all disappeared. But now on my just made 3rd account, the code works.

      • chadiwrx on 12/12/2011 - 18:09

        From past experiences once you apply the code you have 24hrs to spend it or lose it

        • Ughhh on 12/12/2011 - 18:14

          Ah I see, cheers.

  • ozAzn on 12/12/2011 - 12:10

    Do codes work anymore? Feeling bored and might make 2nd acc for 2nd round of $30.

  • nickj on 12/12/2011 - 12:17

    The deal is good, but this store sucks. It is so unwieldy - there's flash on every page (hate flash! always disable it). The search is brain dead, and seems to present things in a silly order. It's also woefully incomplete - I searched for 3 or 4 albums from Rolling Stone's best 30 albums of 2010, and they didn't have any of them. It's badly presented - I can't see the price of something without clicking on it and opening its details (imagine if you had to do this at the supermarket: take everything up to the till and ask "how much is this? And this? And what about this?" … uhh! "Tell em the price, son!"). And then as the icing on the cake, the downloading is dog slow or dies in the middle of getting the songs? Jeez, if this is as good as it gets, I'm amazed we even have a music industry any more.

    • kiwipride on 12/12/2011 - 12:56

      Are you seriously complaining when your getting stuff for free?

      • nickj on 13/12/2011 - 11:03

        No, not about the deal - free is great! My comment is simply that the store should be improved a lot to maximize its value as a business.

        • swimmingtoad on 13/12/2011 - 12:23

          Its only a test site for Sony, so i dare say it'll get alot more funds to redo and improve if it gets the go ahead

    I wonder if you can resell the tracks on redigi.com?

      Good point!
      There should be no reason why you couldn't, as the codes give you monetary credit to use on the bandit.fm site.. so you are legit purchasing DRM free music..

  • JohJoh on 12/12/2011 - 14:31

    This is excellent! Thank you everyone for free credit :) Luckily this site has some of the oldest music that is hard to find, and which will be a Christmas present for my Dad!

        all my credit gone as well

        that was pretty shit

  • beccy_babe on 12/12/2011 - 19:48

    Took everyone's advise and made sure i downloaded my $30 all in the same day. Don't want to loose free money!

  • SmokeandMirrors on 13/12/2011 - 01:10

    Thanks OP. Got above and beyond - group therapy and Babylon zoo - Hong Kong Groover. Had to pay about $6 extra. Sure I could have downloaded it for free but it feels better to buy it :)

    • Buddy on 13/12/2011 - 01:43

      i was going to pick up Above and Beyond - Group Therapy but the codes didnt work when i enter them in just minutes ago. believe JimJim got the expiry date wrong :(

      • SmokeandMirrors on 14/12/2011 - 00:20

        Group Therapy is awesome! Been listening to it going to work and back. It sucks that you missed out on that one.

  • Buddy on 13/12/2011 - 01:40

    :( codes doesnt work. thought had till end of Tuesday 13th Dec 2011 as JimJim put Voucher exp. 11:59PM 13/12/11. believe you got the expiry date wrong. i want to cry…

  • star64 on 13/12/2011 - 01:52

    this is a good deal. got some songs that i wanted and some others i listened to.
    my only complaint with some of the songs is having the music there and having a price and able to listen to sample only to not be able to download it because of te country or something.
    thought i could get some nickelback but apparently not
