Puretracks was a Canadian online music store, which launched officially on October 14, 2003. It became a division of Somerset Entertainment, owned by Fluid Music. Puretracks had U.S. and Canadian licensing agreements with a number of music labels, and offered a large number of music tracks for purchase and download.

The majority of music was sold at 256 to 320 kbit/s MP3 files.^[1]

As of February 20, 2007, Puretracks started offering the majority of its collection in MP3 format without DRM, an approach advocated by theories such as the Open Music Model.

Puretracks shut down in August, 2013.

Both the Puretracks Canadian and US stores are Mac compatible. Tracks and albums downloaded from the store are saved and downloaded into a music player.

The Puretracks music store was a digital music download store that operated in North America, offering more than 3.4 million tracks from artists.^{[citation needed]}

It also offered multilingual music stores and customer support, with toggles between English and French in the Canadian music store, and a separate Latin music store (featuring Spanish and English toggles).
