This is probably one of the best flash website ever done. Very good example of how Flash can make the user experience much better than a fully accessible website. Compare it to any other online store, and compare how's you listen the previews of the tracks and how many clicks you have to do. I guess this is a good example that sometimes is better to not concentrate on accessibility and concentrate on doing a good service which then ends in a good business.
I'll probably buy some tracks there :)

| where's the effin' improvement?
It's 645K-for-starters of non-scalable ludicrously cluttered interface. Care to copy a title or description, or running FirefBug Net analyzer through this little monster.
This could be a perfectly functional XHTML-AJAX RIA, streamlined to excellence. But no, it just has to be flash-y.
Good business, good service and internet applications are not all about accesibility.

| Probably doing it with flash made the development cheaper.
