If I want to download an album i have to search for each track seperately and download it. Is there a way of just saving myself a bit of time and downloading the album as one? I'm fairly new to it so be to hard on me!! I don't want to use any other programs as I have paid a 32 quid subscription for unlimited tracks for 2 or 3 years.

You can only download each song separateley. Just search the band name and the album, and all the songs of the album will come up, thats the easieest way

It depends on your computer memory, and internet servior speed. unless you have a large computer(as far as memory, and processor goes) and a ulti fast inter connection you can not download entire alburns at once. Also most computers will only download a song at a time even when downloading forma a cd alburn.
I have 364 megs of memory of which 40 % is free but I can not download alburns on a 1.3 g internet connections .
I stopped using any online music companies after napster was found to be illegal but really enjoyed getting hard to get music you could only download from other users. Music that usually was not owned by music companies but individual oldies, or new comers without a contract.
I talked with someone about limewire and kazaa and they said that lime wire would only allow you to retain their music on their account and when you unscribed you lost the music. Not sure on this. My friend said she lost alll of the music(which were deleted with the closing of the accound) when she closed the account due to their continually trying to upload adware on her.

The problem is that sharers don't have the whole album. Your search only brings up what you search for. For example, if you search for "Joshua Tree," looking for that whole U2 album, the search will find all files with those words in its title, or description. The problem is, most sharers do not bother to describe individual tracks with the album name. You might get lucky and find the whole album as one file, but then you can't shuffle songs, etc.
But, try searching for the album name. Maybe you will get lucky and save yourself some searching, but you have to download each file separately. The only possible exception would be if some sharer had compressed the whole album in a .zip file of mp3s. Then you could try searching "All Files" for that. Good luck.

Sometimes on limewire I have seen the whole album come up in the search results,altho it doesnt happen very often. Just make sure you look at the times of each track and that will tell you.

If you didn't download the faster version for limewire(which is $19.99) then you've been cheated out of your money. But, no you cannot download the album just by itself. You have to search for each song on the album you want.

I tried limewire. I would be very careful, i have very good virus software but when trying them alot of the stuff was infected with the trojan horse virus and several others. As For downloading most let you download the full so think about it.

Unfortunately, you cannot download an entire album all at once, unless it has been uploaded as one large track...that sometimes happens with Techno music, where there may not be detectable breaks between tracks.
