Hello, how do I go about selling downloadable mp3s? I have a small online store and am using pay pal.

Thanks!

Downloadable products are built-in features for a lot of shopping carts (ZenCart, for example) so you can always check the documentation before designing something that might already exist.

What kind of cart are you using?

That's true, ZenCart does have Digital downloads integrated and it's an open source (free) product.

Do a bit of research into DRM (Digital Right Management) and other terms that come with selling mp3's online.

I am not using any cart, just pay pal buttons. The store is really small and pay pal works fine. I found a company called payloadz.com. Has anyone heard of them? They deal with electronic merchandise.

I've used e-junkie.com fairly successfully for PDF downloads. I believe they are also set up to work with music files etc. It's a pretty slick system.
