I have an eMusic.com account which allows me to own the music that I buy, rather than renting my entertainment — I want to rock my tunes whenever, wherever I can, internet or not, present or future, Skynet or Google.
eMusic also has a Linux download client which is pretty nice and is based on the Mozilla Firefox codebase. Download, unpack, and then read on.

Once extracted, visit this link in your browser to set a cookie to alert eMusic that you have a Linux download client:
If you don't visit that link, eMusic will try to give you a Windows .exe file rather than your downloadable music.
Finally, purchase your music in eMusic and when prompted to save or open a file, select Open and browse to the executable that you unpacked earlier, such as
/usr/local/emusicdlm/emusicdlm
And, if you're like me and want to rock to music at work while still interacting with your coworkers, perhaps you want to build a Mono Maker:
Thanks for visiting!
