Gonna check the ones that've been commented since I last checked.

I also asked a guy I trust about stuff being legit, and that lives in the Czech Republic, if he knew a store, "Supraph Online", and he said: I guess it's fine, then, so adding it next to the list.

Took me long enough, but I'm starting to pick up projects I forgot, including this one. Just added previously mentioned Amazon and one I found this past week, Auone.

Isnt pretty much all digital music drm free? itunes,amazon,etc

With caveats, from what I've been observing. So, if anything, they're being listed along with the caveats I can find.

Here's one more:

Limited selection and there's a limit. You can download your purchases only four times.
They offer general discounts very often and have a bonus points system.
Download via browser or their own download manager.

Thanks! Hopefully adding to the list today!

Any good place here listed for KPop? I would prefer studio quality, not 16/44. I want to hear what was recorded and heard by the engineers and artists, not the watered down stuff.

Added Recochoku! Adding more as I can.

Added SoundCloud, and also not adding Apple as, from what I found recently, they seem to use some light DRM, but DRM nonetheless.

edit: typo

I don't think so. AAC files have no DRM

Apple used to sell songs in .M4P (DRM) format, but they have long switched to .M4A (DRM-free). Nowadays they only apply DRM to Apple Music (streaming) songs, which is understandable.

Interesting. Might get some EP or single later to test.

Interesting. In Apple's license agreement, they explicitly say there are DRM-free contents in their music store. Let's see how it goes further on.

On the other side, Apple still requires to use iTunes to download your purchases.
I don't have an issue with it but some people think of that as DRM.

I don't notice a difference between MP3 and uncompressed, so I just use Amazon. I'm trying to give Amazon less money lately but haven't gotten around to switching yet. I don't buy a ton of music though, to be fair.
