It is known that MP3sale has been out of action for a long time. Ignoring customer support emails and failing to sort out their billing system has resulted in rendering their business useless. It was only time before their (free) weekly credit-hand-outs would wear thin.What happened to Mp3fiesta AllOfMP3 when it was forced to convert itself to Memhis member , due to mounting legal pressure is now happening to Soundike. With billing disabled and sign-ups redirected to MP3Panda.com, MP3Panda could possibly be the new mp3 music (http://evterpa.co.uk/) Allofmp3.Mp3fiestta is a very popular website (ranked 4934 by Alexa) and with popularity comes unwanted interest from music companies and organizations, for example RIAA and IFPI. If anything infringes their business, will do all they can to take you down. Since Mp3partner is hosted in a different country taking it to court would be a very tedious and long winded affair, so the other option would be to attack the payment processors. Knocking down the payment processors would make the business useless as customers would be unable to refill their accounts and purchase music. As most credit/debit cards are owned by American firms and most people have one, big corporate bullying from the music organizations would most likely force payment merchants into taking transactions offline. It only takes a matter of time before the domain is blacklisted against all banks. This is what happened to AllOfMP3 Memhis member and their solution was to simply move to another domain.MP3Fiesta has not had a good reputation for good business etiquette; stories posted from Aom3.org members give you an idea what it's like when things go bad when you're an MP3Fiesta customer. For the past two months the MP3Fiesta financial aspect has been struggling. With very low balances and continuing pressure from IFPI hunters, it has made it impossible for MP3Fiesta to recover from such a dire point in business. Ditching its valuable domain, partners, branding, customer loyalty and taking their in!

orum offline to keep matters inside, we will now most likely see the disappearance of a popular drm-free music shop, MP3Fiesta and see how it plans to keep Mp3fiesta alive through 2009...
