    When you signup you have to enter your paypal account details, but once the signup has finished and after you receive your $20 credit, you can simply cancel your payment agreement through your paypal account.

    Now to get some legit free music :)

    The website is by Sony.

  • covert on 22/08/2009 - 07:28

    Sony's marketing department must have rocks in there head using a name like bandit for a online store. "Mum can I have $30 to buy song's from bandit.fm"

    • jong on 22/08/2009 - 11:36

      Yeah, I guess they thought "ArmedBandit.fm" was too long.

  • leeroys_dad on 22/08/2009 - 07:31

    you've got to enter the code 168 in the first textbox, then paypal in the other. It took a while to work that out because I couldn't see the outline of the textboxes :\

    • Clivey In Space on 22/08/2009 - 07:53

      lol. got me at first as well as I was doing a cut 'n paste.

  • JeffreyM on 22/08/2009 - 12:14

    Just wanted to let everyone know that this website is DRM-free which means you can store/put it on as many computers and/or music devices as you want.

  • Pizza The Hut on 22/08/2009 - 12:44

    It is asking for my paypal details. Did you have to give it to them?

    • Clivey In Space on 22/08/2009 - 12:51

      You have to give them your paypal details in order to signup but once you have signed up, you can cancel your payment agreement through your paypal account. Nothing is deducted when signing up.

      • Pizza The Hut on 22/08/2009 - 12:54

        Thanks Misa.

        • POWERevolution on 22/08/2009 - 16:44

          you can cancel your payment agreement through your paypal account.

          Where to go once in my paypal account? Please show how to do it.

          • zoeric on 22/08/2009 - 16:58

            @POWERevolution: Once you have signed up your account, in the top right hand corner, click on your username. This will take you into "My Account" page, then on the left hand menu, click on "Payment Details". You will then see the various credit card logos and under that the PayPal logo. If you have added your PayPal account, it will show "PayPal Details entered" and next to it a "Remove" link. Click on "Remove" to remove your PayPal account.

            • POWERevolution on 22/08/2009 - 17:05

              @zoeric: Thanks but I just found out how to do it…

              Log into your PayPal account from the main page, select Profile > Pay List > Sony Music Entertainment Australia Pty Ltd Agreement and then press ''Cancel''.
              That way Sony is no longer authorized to make deductions from your account.

              • POWERevolution on 22/08/2009 - 17:31

                @POWERevolution: jduong, I try your way too but some how it didn't work. After clicked remove and it's still there.

  • pearldrops on 22/08/2009 - 13:19

    Wow got it! Been wanting to get the new Rob Thomas Diamonds!!! Thanks!

  • ThePistonHead on 22/08/2009 - 17:46

    Still haven't got my $20!

  • insanityrules on 22/08/2009 - 18:33

    this sounds good - off to check it out

  • insanityrules on 22/08/2009 - 18:43

    ok, once you sign up and verify your account, you log in, click on your user name at the top right of the page, that will open a new page where you click on vouchers and you can enter the voucher details.

  • aRBitor on 23/08/2009 - 01:11

    Is the $20 automatically credited to your account or do you have to wait for a code?

  • Neatoboy on 23/08/2009 - 12:14

    Excellent find… I downloaded Parables for Wooden Ears, Powderfinger.

  • Red Hippo on 23/08/2009 - 15:37

    good bargain. top stuff

  • bobsi18 on 23/08/2009 - 18:23

    Fantastic, thanks :)

  • Caliente on 23/08/2009 - 23:29

    Brilliant find. It's no Itunes store but the sound quality is top notch. All tracks are 320kbps MP3.

    Just make sure you stop clicking before your $20 is up. Mine is almost gone!!!

  • TrendyTim on 24/08/2009 - 10:22

    I was already a member, i entered the code, it didnt ask for any paypal info, it just gave me $20.

    I've been a member of Bandit for a while for those who have cancelled their paypal details if you link in your credit card and buy one album in august they will credit your account with $20. Link http://www.bandit.fm/about/promotion-freecredit?id=LinkTK-Ba…
    Funny thing is I then spent the credit on one $10 album and one $14.90 album which meant I owed 4.90 which of course they took from my credit card which makes sense and is all cool however they then counted that as another August credit card purchase and gave me another $20 Credit. Score! this time I think I'll try a $10 and $11 purchase and see if the will give me yet another credit for spending just one dollar :)

  • sharpeye on 24/08/2009 - 14:48

    Just sign up and did not see not the $20 in my paypal account. Was the $20 credit meant to go to my paypal account or bandit account?

    • zoeric on 24/08/2009 - 15:41

      The $20 is credited to your bandit account. Log in to bandit.fm and you'll see on the top right hand corner your username and your account balance.

  • firepowered on 24/08/2009 - 16:18

    it's actually a very good site. i like it more than itunes actually!

    • TrendyTim on 27/08/2009 - 09:18

      Its great if you know exactly what you want, but its useless for finding stuff when you dont know the name of the song, they still haven't implemented list songs by artist instead of grouping by album that i suggested ages ago.

      It would be soo easy to make bandit make iTunes look like Sanity by comparison, but they just dont seem to want to try. (Not that ive bought from or even seen the itunes music store, and i probably never will due to my dislike for iPods, but the ITunes app is horrific enough, i can imagine the store not being any better.)

    BRILLIANT!
    My favorite band just released a new album today and I got it for free using this website.

    WELL actually it was $20.50 so I charged the $.50 to my credit card.
    THIS gave me an extra $20 credit, because of their other promotion!
    YAY!!

    • pearldrops on 25/08/2009 - 20:37

      what other promotion???

      • zoeric on 25/08/2009 - 22:27
        +1

        this promotion - http://www.bandit.fm/about/promotion-freecredit?id=LinkTK-Ba…

        Get $20 free credit when you buy any album with your credit card before 31 August, 2009 (inclusive).

        So if you have already collected the $20 free credit from the PayPal promotion, you need to ensure you remove the your PayPal details and add your credit card details. You also need to ensure that a part of the album purchase will be deducted from your credit card in order to get the $20 free credit from the "buy any album with your credit card" promotion. eg you have $20 free credit, the album costs $20.50, so $0.50 will be charged to your credit card and your account will automatically be credited with another $20.

  • Caliente on 27/08/2009 - 21:53

    hehehe, just paid 40 cents on my AMEX to get another 20 bucks of download credit. Sweet AS!

  • techprincesss on 17/09/2009 - 07:59

    Got my credit!
