EMusic licenses its music from labels and compensates artists for every track that is downloaded. EMusic's catalog is available in the open MP3 format, so the tracks can be easily and conveniently played on PCs, portable players or burned to CD-R for playback on any CD player. Earlier this year, EMusic offered Star Trek fans a free MP3 album of their choice. Response was so positive that the company is upping the ante, offering fans up to 100 MP3s of their choice. EMusic also offers original music from many of the blockbuster Star Trek movies and original sound effects from the first series.
Users simply have to test drive the service to access the free music.
The offer is only good once per user and is only open to people who have not taken a test drive before.
