1. Music bought on iTunes can be played on 5 computers.
b) 10$ is too much. Free is right around the corner. I might pay a couple of dollars a CD.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Agreed. My point is not to defend iTunes, just to point out Oerdin's factual mistake. If you're going to criticize them, do it with Real Facts (tm).Originally posted by Kuciwalker

The reason digital downloads are not attractive to me is the lackluster offer for non anglo-saxon music and independent labels. CD is still the material of choice for getting and sharing music amongst my friends.In Soviet Russia, Fake borises YOU.Comment

non anglo-saxon music
What. The. ****.
Say "non-English" music.
Most people who speak English as a first language are neither Angles nor Saxons.
I'm a Celto-Norman, for instance.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

That's not the kind of model I'm talking about. I'm talking about "pay a regular fee" and get what you want, and retain the rights to use the music in any non commercial way you want.
I've been a subscriber for several months. It's a really good service IMO. My plan's 40 songs for $10, and the music selection's quite decent (particularly if you prefer more independent labels)."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

Right, no DRM. You pay for a certain number of songs per month (I have the minimal plan). And you can redownload songs you've already bought."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

Hmmm. They won't let me search their library without signing up. Not a particularly good sign.
But I might still go for the free trial when I go home.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Ah right. They recently increased their price for new subscribers.
Sure about being unable to search? It lets me without logging in..."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "
