Clarification of Question by srb12-ga on 31 Jul 2005 09:02 PDT

mp3dollar.com was the address I got back to confirm I had joined
www.music members area .com-I thought the whole thing was napster.

Hello srb12,

The whole thing appears fishy to me.  A whois database shows different
registration information for musicmembersarea.com, mp3dollar.com,
mp3downloadhq.com (the site that mp3dollar.com displays), and
napster.com.

If you feel that these non-Napster websites are a rip-off, you may
want to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and/or
contact your state or local government or an attorney for suggestions.

That is all the opening pages says. Someone with email address to
collect spam might try it.

Yes but it had Napster w/ logo and I thought I was signing up for
napster...I actually gave my credit card info and signed up for
unlimited download fo music?? All the time it had napster logo and I
thought that is what i was getting until the end and I realized
trouble...maybe/probably.

I started on google search for napster and clicked on what said
napster unlimted w its logo and all-I followed this out and signed
up...when done I get not napster but member area music BS-I am
thinking its BS or a flat rip-that is my ?.

I too have been 'conned' by this website.  27th September 2005 I
subscribed - thought I was paying 13.41 GBP ended up paying 33.54 GBP
for something that wasn't what I thought it was.  Tried to contact
them on the telephone number on the website - no luck.  Used their
Live Chat facility and corresponded with someone who advised me no
refund available - despite their site saying you could cancel.  Was
told to request refund via a form I downloaded from
www.mp3downloading.com/survey.  Faxed this to the company, who I was
advised are based in Canada - on November 18th 2005.  Have not had the
courtesy of a reply!!  What is the proper name of this Company? -
website I was on was MP3musiclive.com.  I am based in the UK.

Yes - I think this is a con - the payment for unlimited downloads,
unlimited movies etc doesn't appear to give you anything you can't get
for free. My advice - steer clear.
