Is capital of cheap quasi legal music, AllofMP3, winding down? Since January 17 the site has not posted a single album to their catalog, and there have been errors while trying to access albums already entered into the system? Could this spell the end for the Russian music service?

Multiple requests for information to the sites PR department (?!) have gone unreturned.

Thoughts?

UPDATE: AllofMP3 has responded to my email and have stated that a “systems error” has prevented updates and they will resume normal operations soon.

    Noooooo I still have 3 dollars and change in my account. That is a ton of music wasted away. So long Allofmp3 i’ll miss you but I am sure there will be another bright shining star to replace the void you left behind.

    1.5 trillion dollars or some other retarded sum. I remember that it was larger the entire Russian GDP.

    AllofMP3 went dead for me the day Wells Fargo decided to no longer approve any credit card transaction for the AllofMP3 payment service. Would it really be that hard for them to accept a PayPal payment?
    (BTW, does anyone know of another way to add funds to an account?)
