you can buy & burn from napster also, it's just a different service than the monthly subscription what you're using.

Windows Media Player is integrated with Napster's service, and will not let you burn protected tracks. You can't turn off the copy protection. And as for LimeWire, I'm not much into illegal things.

You may burn each Purchased Track to a CD an unlimited number of times, but may only burn each Purchased Track up to seven (7) times as part of any particular playlist of songs. A "playlist" is a discrete group of Purchased Tracks that are arranged together in a particular order. Once you have burned a Purchased Track to a CD, you agree not to copy, distribute, or transfer the track from that CD to any other media or device.
You may transfer a Purchased Track an unlimited number of times to two (2) portable devices that are compatible with the Service's Usage Rules and security requirements. Once you have transferred a Purchased Track to a compatible portable device, you agree not to copy, distribute, or transfer it from that device to any other media or device. You may be required to register your portable devices with Napster.

If you are using the version of the Service that is accessible from Microsoft Corporation's Windows Media Player 9 Series, you will only be able to burn or transfer Purchased Tracks using the Windows Media Player. In addition, if you are using the version of the Service that runs in Microsoft Corporation's Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004, certain features that are available in the Service will not be available in the "distance viewing" experience.

A "Download" is a Track that you may save to the hard drive of your personal computer and play back as many times as you want for so long as your subscription is current. You may make an unlimited number of Downloads while your subscription is current. You may copy each Download to up to two additional personal computers that you own (i.e. a total of 3 copies). If you wish to burn Downloads to CDs or transfer them to compatible portable devices (other than using the "Napster To Go" Service described below) you will need to pay for them as Purchased Tracks. You may not share Downloads with anyone else. Napster automatically renews your rights to all of your Downloads at the beginning of each Subscription Month (as defined below) so long as your subscription remains current. This means that in order to play any Download after the end of a Subscription Month (as defined below), you must log on to the Service so that Napster can renew your rights for those Tracks. The Client will count the number of times that you play a Download, including while you are offline, for royalty accounting and analysis purposes.

Do whatever you want, as long as you get the real Pink Floyd CD in your hands with all the bells and whistles.
But for goodness sakes, please dont download only a couple of the "catchy" songs. Download the whole thing and listen to it as a whole, like PF intended it (I'm pretty sure you do looking at how you buy the real albums )

The only problem with this is that I do not have any "Purchased Tracks". You must buy these individually, for $.99 a track, of which I do not do. I use Napster To Go, which allows you to download an unlimited number of songs for $15 a month.

Haha, thanks for the answer I've been looking for, Lalo. And of course I'll listen to the whole CDs! I've never bought a Pink Floyd CD and just skipped around.

Yep, that's the bummer about Napster and the other monthly fee services. You rent the songs, and therefore you don't own them. iTunes, MSN Music, and some others (Wal-Mart I think) have a per-song cost so you own them after purchase. My preference as well.

Well, I'm going to go ahead and start downloading the CDs. I'll just buy the CDs when I get the cash. Here's to classic rock!

And so, I begin with A Saucerful of Secrets.

Go to http://www.allofmp3.com/ .08 a song. They're based in Russia, not sure if it's legal or not. But it works.
