    I have noticed plenty of sites that sell music downloads. Is there any sort of reseller programs? or where do they get their music from.

    NOTE: I am not just talking about iTunes. :)

    i would imagine you are talking about LEGAL music downloads. not a fs program (not saying that that is illegal ... but, maybe not ethical) or copied music site.

    you would probably have to pay royalties to artists/record company. big fees.

    Of couse legal I am guessing, they slapped on prices to songs and sell them individually so I doubt it is dodgy?

    Is it legal to sell free p2p programs? Like WinMX, or LimeWire?

    Maybe become a major music company affliate or reseller if you cannot go to the records company yourself.

    No. You have to have reseller rights to distribute them, and even if you somehow did, why would they buy it if they can just go to the official site and get it for free?

    I doubt a record company would make it that simple.
