A few days ago, I signed up for "Napster To Go". The Oldfield offerings are meagre: all they have is Boxed, TB, OTB, and and the short "Elements" collection. Boxed  was worthwhile, anyway: I have not heard "Collaborations" for years (only having the original vinyl version)

I was wondering what the offerings were like on the other services, such as iPod (iTunes),Wal-Mart, and Rhapsody.

This is a discussion item of legitimate/authorized services only. Please don't reply with mentions of Kazaa/etc pirate sources. I think those are against forum rules anyway.

Mp3Search.ru, a Russian site for legal (paid) mp3 downloads, has only TSODE, XXV and 3L. And they got lots of messages requesting the TB albums. :)

I've got no idea about iPod et similia, as I've never used those. Usually I buy CDs. :)

on iTunes you can get:

TB,
Discovery,
Crisis,
TB (25th Anniversary)
Amarok
Earth Moving
Five Miles Out
QE2
Platinum
Exposed
Incantations
Collection
The Best of TB
Hergest Ridge
Ommadawn
Elements
Thou Art in Heaven
The Orchestral TB
Exposed (Live)

However I still believe it's worth paying that little bit extra for proper CDs if you like the whole album - which reminds me I must finish off getting the back-catalogue - only got 4 or 5 albums missing. :)

What is TB 25th and "Thou Art in Heaven"? Is the latter just a single track and not an album?
