Danny Gokey “My Best Days”
Former American Idol contestant, Danny Gokey, may not have won the competition, but he certainly is making music regardless. His debut album is called My Best Days and is being released tomorrow.

Of course it’s necessary though, I don’t fault any company for trying to protect their business interests and profitability. The problem is it just gets in the way. If I purchase a digital copy of the song, why can’t I have the same rights with it as I would if I bought the original CD. Make a copy… More »
