For actual (legal) song/album downloads, iTunes can't be beat!

Absolutely. You have a specific number of computers that can be authorized to play purchased iTunes songs; I think it's five. Anyhow, the best practice is to de-authorize a computer before giving it away, selling it, or reformatting it because otherwise it'll remain as one of your used authorizations. However, once per year you can wipe out the Apple's authorizations database for your account, essentially giving yourself all five authorizations back.
