Google Play Music

[Tugas]

Hello everyone,

I got about a 2500 czech crowns (about 100$) for christmas from my parents to spend on whatever I want.

I thought about spending it in some songs in Google Play Music (not the all access).

To buy any song however I need to set up a Google Wallet account with some credit card details (has to be my dad´s). Since this works like anytime I buy songs it gets taken away from my dad´s account, he doesnt think it is a good idea because it is hard to monitor how much money I´ve spent. Is there any other service where I can buy music and can out in some credit so anytime i buy a song it gets discounted from it instead of any bank account?

I would appreaciate any help.

Thx in advance.

Don't bother with Play Music. The DRM is extremely restrictive. Apart from not being able to copy songs to your PC, you can't use the music without the Google Play Music client unlike iTunes which allows you to use the music you buy with any software and devices.

Are you saying that I should go with iTunes? I forgot to mention that I´d rather avoid anything with an apple in its back. Do you know any other alternatives?

I don't know what Google Play Music you've been using, Google allows you to download to your collection every song you buy from them twice without using the software, DRM-free 320k MP3.

If you do want to use Google Play Music, I think you could buy Google Play Wallet cards from most places.

 

Would let you buy a limited amount of credit that you could go through.

 

Also, the DRM on Google Play is very good in my experience. You can just right click and download the music if you do wish to use another media player/ copy to phone / have an offline copy.

Really? I have never been able to copy anything from Play Music.

Read the post above you.

 

EDIT: Proof, don't judge, it was free.

Thank you all for your ideas but the Google Play Wallet cards are not available in my country

I could buy them in a different country but i dont know if the currency would convert.

Are you all sure there is no alternative?

Thanks.
