I have 16 downloads left on EMusic.com that expire in a few days.
Anyone have any suggestions of songs or albums I should download?
Keep in mind that it has to be tracks available on EMusic. Also, I prefer the genres pop-punk, rock, and indie. I will take other genre suggestions as well.
If you could include a description of the artist, song, and/or album, that would be really helpful too. That way I have some idea what kind of music I am checking out before I get it.
Please, NO HIP HOP or COUNTRY!

Hmm...i don't really know what music is there available on emusic, but for rock, why don't you try chris daughtry's debut album? i assumed you know him, from the american idol? his music is awesome, and one of the songs ("What I Want") even featuring slash as the lead gutiar.
If that is too common, or you've already downloaded that one, try Breaking Benjamin's latest album. The hit single "Diary of Jane" is still at no.5 in the Modern Rock Chart. Awesome for punk lovers. And Taking Back Sunday? Their song also still at no.10 on Modern Rock Chart. I recommend these two because they're my current favorite for punk bands.

Chris Daughtry's album isn't available on there (at least not yet), and I already have Taking Back Sunday.
However, those were very good suggestions. We definitely have similar music taste, but I already knew this by your username.

I'm downloading some Sufjan Stevens right now. I've been meaning to get his stuff for a while, and I hadn't even thought to look him up on there.
Great suggestions, thank you very much!

Most of the artists played on those channels aren't available on Emusic. This is where the problem lies.
I'm looking for more "underground" style artist.

I like the song "Bad Day" by Daniel Pawter as he came on American Idol last year and sang this song and I hear it everywhere I go as well as having his cd. I also like the song "The Real Thing" by Bo Bice. I listen to these songs very much and would recommend them.

I had the (legal) downloads left available on Emusic, that's why I was going to get the songs on there.
Limewire isn't legal.

Give it a try to Explosions in the Sky, they are a post-rock band who play exclusively some of the most impressive instrumental pieces you'll ever hear in your life. I don't know if they're available on eMusic.com or not, but they're definitly worth checking out.

If you want to have a old album collection here my suggestion is to download a song from album 'Confrontation' -Buffalo Soldier.
