Chinese website offers 3-cent music downloads

There are heaps of Russian websites out there offering cheap music downloads, but now there is one a Chinese service trying to get a piece of the pie, supposedly offering legal music downloads for knockdown prices. The Chinese websites has teamed up with an American partner. The price of each track? 3 cents. That’s a heck of a lot less than most music websites.

www.wa3.cn offers more than one million songs from international artists in genres such as pop, hip hop, dance, rock, blues and country. There are popular and underground artists included on the roster.

You basically pay the equivalent of about $3 and then get 88 music downloads. How this works, we have no idea. At the moment, you have to live in China to take advantage of the service. It’s anybody’s guess whether this is totally legit. And with music downloads so cheap, it kind of begs the question as to why anyone would even bother. No word on if this will be thrown open to other countries.
