MusicRebellion: Let the Feeding Frenzy Begin!
Published January 09, 2004
If you open a Peppercoin account, you will not have to deposit money into your MusicRebellion account before you make purchases. Peppercoin, via the PepperPanel, will charge your credit card as you download.
What is Peppercoin?
Peppercoin is a new payment system that allows you to buy digital content on a pay-per-use basis. For more information, you may read the next few questions, or go here.
Which operating systems can I use with Peppercoin?
The following Windows operating systems are compatible with the Peppercoin payment system: Win95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT, 2000, XP.
Can I run the PepperPanel on more than one machine?
Yes. You can install the PepperPanel on as many Windows machines as you like. You can even use someone else's PepperPanel to buy digital content. All you have to do is log into the PepperPanel with your account username and password. Your purchases will be billed to your account.
What does PPB stand for?
This is an abbreviation for the PepperBox file format, which is the format expected by the PepperPanel. These files contain an encrypted file or application as well as information such as the price, whom to pay, and a description of the content.
Do I have to install software on my computer? Why?
If you use Peppercoin, yes you must install the Peppercoin PepperPanel on your computer. While you can open a Peppercoin account without installing the PepperPanel, your account will be useless until you download and install the PepperPanel. The PepperPanel lets you pay for and access the digital content that you download from the Web. If you choose to use MusicRebellion to pay you do not have to install any additional software.
Does MusicRebellion store my credit card number?
We do not store your credit card number itself. We store part of your credit card number in order to process refunds, but we cannot charge anything further to your credit card. Even someone with access to our database cannot get your credit card number.
What if my download is broken or my modem disconnected?
You are authorized to download your media one time. That way, if your modem gets disconnected, you can try again within two days. If you complete a download, you are not allowed to download that file again until you pay for it again. To prevent dishonest use, if the download breaks multiple times just before the end of the file, you won't be able to download that file until you pay for it again.
I would like the money from my account refunded.
If you funded your account with a credit card, please go here to request a refund. If you funded your account using paypal, please contact customer service for a refund.
How to view your purchase history
To view your purchase history begin by clinking on the "my account" link at the top of the web page. Once you have opened the "my account" web page you will be able to access your purchase history by clinking on the "purchases" link at the top of the page.
