Is anyone here downloading from Jamendo? I can't seem to download anything from there?

I was able to torrent something from there once but at the moment can't seem to get anything to download or torrent.

I download from there occasionally. I don't remember having to do anything special to do it.

There are a couple awesome artists on there like Hungry Lucy and 2inventions. Ogg downloads are available but there is no link (except for the unseeded torrents). There is a work around discussed here:

It works okay, but their torrent ogg downloads never have any seeds so one is stuck with the mp3 direct download instead.

Personally I think it lacks the professionalism of Magnatune.
