You can purchase and download a song from any site... make sure you either save it as an mp3 or convert it to mp3 format.
My personal favorite is itunes just because I have an extensive collection there. But since my mp3 player is a Sansa I use an mp3 converter to convert the itunes songs to mp3 format (itunes uses their own format that doesn't work in other mp3 players).
Then upload the song to a site that will host it and return you a URL with a .mp3 extension on the end of it (if the hosting website returns you a URL that has anything other than a .mp3 extension on the end it will not play in your profile).
The best site I found for hosting my songs and giving me the right URLs back is www.mailboxdrive.com
It is a free service, but they do accept donations.
Make sure you register for an account (they will ask you for your email, phone, and address). Then upload your song. You'll need to activate your uploads from your email address. Then just copy and paste your link and you're good to go.
If anyone needs help let me know!!
Thanks,
Emily
