MP3va Avis 

I've been with these guys for quite a few years now and could not recommend them more. If they don't have a song they'll get it. If there's a pop or skip on the song they'll replace it and offer no hassle credit.
Love 'em!

Have been with Mp3va for some years now and find it a brilliant source for music and entertainment. Sometimes I just enjoy browsing and listening to the various artists with WiKi also open to find out more. I have discovered so many new artists here, and they are great at sourcing artists and/or albums upon request, not giving up even if it takes a couple of months. They have always come right for me. I get my music no where else.

This Awesome site is my "go to" when I'm looking for music. Better than other well known music sites (and way less expensive). I've been using this site for years and have nothing but good things to say about them. Their music catalog is extremely vast, and varied. If you can't find something on their site, request it. They have filled so many of my requests (a lot of them very difficult releases to come by). You might have to wait a little bit, but they eventually come through. Their service is impeccable! On the rare occasion an error occurs (i.e. incomplete song, bad recording, etc.) all I've had to do is contact them and let them know what the problem is and they take care of you! Patience is needed sometimes, but with so many subscribers, and the size catalog that they have to maintain, it is to be expected that one might have to wait a little bit. Nothing is perfect in this world. These folks come close! They also have occasional "celebration" sales for different holidays, and occasions which make their costs even cheaper than their already inexpensive pricing. Friendly, courteous people; Keep up the good work!

I'm an Italian fan. I find mp3va very rich in albums and artists, with good quality (most 320 Kps titles) and cheap, but the best it's offered by its staff!
I mean they're very kind and fast; usually can replay to my questions and desires soon.
Congratulations to all!

This is an awesome website . I stumbled on by accident and been using it ever since . I would recommend this website to everyone but it's my little secret. Jk.
I love the music suggestion feature . If they don't have what you want they will likely get it for you

This site is AWESOME!!
I have been using this site for a number of years now, and it is fantastic.
They have always been prompt and courteous with any queries, and any issues have been resolved with no fuss!! - not that there has ever been anything too dramatic....
Also, whenever there has been music I can't find, they are prepared to do their best to track it down and make it part of their catalogue
mp3va.com, you get 5 stars from me!!

From the USTR Review of Notorious Markets regarding mp3va.com:

"This site is one of several based in Russia and Ukraine that allegedly engages in the un-authorized sale of U.S. sound recordings. The site attracts more than 860,000 visits a month, principally from the United States, United Kingdom, and India. It has the look and feel of legal music download sites but sells tracks for pennies. MP3VA’s FAQ page misrepresents the legality of its operations and purports to have a license from Avtor, a rogue Ukrainian collecting society. However, the site’s music download sales are not authorized and authors are not paid. Major U.S. credit card and payment processors no longer support the site. The hosting provider is located in Russia and the operators appear to be located in Ukraine."

Think twice before giving out your credit or personal info to this site?

You can get a copy of their annual report by going to the USTR gov site, and/or search for 2016 Out of Cycle Review Notorious Markets.

Never had any problems except topping up my credit. I contacted them and they were so helpful guiding me through the process. They even sent me a free credit on my birthday. Probably not the super high quality of I Tunes but the sound is still good and a fraction of the price!

MIslabeled and incomplete downloads, and they don't respond to customer complaints.

Plenty of tracks there, so a tick for that (if you're ok with the legal grey area & artists definitely not getting anything), and the mp3 quality is decent, but if you don't have a VISA card (or more obscure Onepay, or a giftcard) then the show's over, no other way to pay. Also it requires a minimum $15 payment (goes onto your account as a credit). Both of these are things you discover right at the end of the process. Frustrating.

I have literally spent over $1000.00 on this site.Problems are very rare.They have a wide variety of genres available.I listen to everything from death metal to jazz fusion and rarely do not find what i want on the site.I lean towards progressive rock and progressive metal and the selection available is mind boggling.Only notable exception I can think of is no King Crimson.

An amazing website where you can SAFELY buy music at the fraction of the cost! Sales are always on so look out for them. Great that you can download the music onto any device anywhere any number of times.

I have been a customer for many years now. The service is truly excellent and the downloads are high quality. I recently requested an obscure album that I couldn't find anywhere and they had it within a couple of days. MP3va is excellent.

Of course it's illegal - 10p per song is not a viable business model when considering the music distro supply chain. But for those of you who seriously believe otherwise, my band has Universal distribution and MP3VA is most certainly not included in that! To those of you saying words to the effect of 'I'll cancel my account when I have irrefutable truth that is the case', surely it should be the other way round: if you were to find out it was legal, you'd use it; otherwise, you're accepting that you may be breaking the law and depriving artists of their income.

super prices - qualitiy is okay

I had discovered Mp3va a year or two ago and had used it primarily as my source for obtaining albums. I had heard it was legal, and I am not entirely sure of this but until it could be confirmed otherwise I decided I would use it.

I was so pleasantly surprised at how much money they give away to you. On your birthday, on certain days of the year, and also when you top up your account wallet with£18 you are given a £6 bonus, and if you top up with £60 you get a £45 bonus! It is incredible, and of course the prices are phenomenal. On average I think I pay around £0.70 per full album.

Sadly I was unable to log into the site for the better part of a year or so, as I got a redirecting error when trying to log in. I left it for ages then I contacted the staff and asked if I could get my old account merged with a new one so I could sign in again. Not only were they very friendly and supportive, they actually sorted the issue out for me (after asking a few security questions, and weren't too strict when I couldn't remember some of them-but rather allowed me to use other means to prove I am the account holder).

Now I am back on and loving it as much as before. The interface is great, and the music selection is surprisingly good. There are quite a few obscure/underground bands that are missing from the site, but there are also plenty others present. Furthermore, sometimes if I can't find an album on there I use the "music request" feature. It has been successful in the past, and I was able to get the album I wanted. Furthermore, every album you bought is saved in your "downloads" segment of your account, meaning you can re-download them whenever you like, and listen to them in full on the site itself as well as create a playlist! Also it is worth mentioning that the albums don't take long to download at all. I have a painfully slow internet connection but most albums download in under 5 minutes for me.

There is some slight trouble in paradise however. Aside from the fact that I cannot confirm whether it is legit or not, some of the music claims to be 320kbps (all of them specify the bitrate)-but it might actually be rather poor quality. I should specify that this is VERY uncommon, perhaps even rare, as I have only encountered one album like that. So perhaps this issue is not major, but it is worth pointing out. I have also encountered a similar case in iTunes (and another case in iTunes in which I bought an album and was unable to download it, and the customer service didn't do anything to help) and so yeah, probably not a big problem but I simply do not know how widespread this issue is on the site, so be wary.

Overall, a phenomenal achievement. I love this site and hope the creators keep it running as beautifully as it is now.

Har det mesta till ett bra pris

also questioned how they do it. Thought maybe their business model is to run at a break even and use the opportunity to make money from paid advertising. Been using for over a year and ZERO problems. Can only accept Visa, not my Mastercard, so I guess the card coy fees eat too much from Mastercard. I emailed one time and they answered within a day. I have no complaints and have been able to analyze music I wouldn't have bought. Places like iTunes need to relook at their pricing? I can't find evidence of them stealing yet.

I have been using this site for well over a year. To date, I have had no card issues, no email issues and no quality issues. I have read sooooo many different views about the legality of this site, and I have yet to find any categoric proof one way or the other. Lots of heresay and vitriole but no proof. IF, I do find it, I will be the first to let people know, straight after I cancel my membership. This site is really good for back catalogue stuff.

A legal music store can't be that cheap first of all, second if you buy for example Katy Perry - Roar you will hear some noise at the beginning, wich indicate pirated/bad quality music, and it is poor taged, at the release date is "unknown" and so on...if you listen the same song on itunes or spotify it is nice and clean at that part i was talking about...
But still, we have just the "moral" problem that the money don't reach the artist, other then that we should have no problem if we use this site, it's not our job to verify if they are legal or not...
What i don't get, is why the autoryties allow this, why they ar not closing them up? there are hundreds of websites like mp3va...
