I can't believe I got stuck with the OP while at work. I can't link any videos or pictures or anything cool. I finally get an OP and I can't do anything about it.

    Actually with the ten songs a month that you get to keep you would keep 2400 of the 3600 minimum.

    A: Not everyone is you when it comes to music.

    B: There is nothing preventing someone on a subscription service from listening to the same song more than once.

    One thing I haven't checked out: are the ten songs drm free? I suppose that's too much to hope for.

    Wait, you get to keep 10 songs a month forever? This seems strictly superior to apple's offering in every way.

    If you normally purchase an average of ten songs a month, you're basically getting the sub for $5.

    Exactly. And I can understand why it's not for everyone. Other people like having physical copies of their stuff because, oh no, the internet might collapse.

    But it's by far, for me, the better deal since I would like to listen to more music of my choice but am unable to due to the cost.

    Images are overrated. You can do wonders with text. For instance you could've written a romantic tribute to me. But you didn't!

    Which is the part they left out that annoys me the most. Especially considering DRM free music off iTunes actually costs 1.29, making the deal even better.

    I think chat threads would be exempt from that rule, given that we rarely post anything of substance anyway.

    69¢–$1.29

    And dudes: MAJOR DRM SERVICES HAVE DISAPPEARED AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO. If you’re willing to take the very real risk that within three years the service you’re paying for will suddenly be non-functional, okay. But don’t think there’s no way it will ever happen.

    That was pretty much what I was going for. If I've never got infracted for "Ooh, lunch time", "Meetings suck", or "Going home bye", I doubt saying I loose threads and blue dotting are going to get me one.

    Then you go to a new service?

    What is the big deal?

    When the service was provided, they payed the monthly fee for it. They got what they payed for.

    When the service ended, they stopped paying, and no service was provided.

    Where is the issue here?

    Really DRM servers going down is only a big deal when it's stuff you've purchased.
