the only way i would pay for a service like that, is if i could download the songs to my drive, and do whatever the hell i wanted with it. meaning, i could burn it to a cd for my car, have it on my laptop, and maybe even an mp3 player. i dont want any of the bullshit licensing that goes along with it, like if i download a song, i can only listen to it on the machine it was downloaded to, unless i move the license too, which means it can only be on one machine. when i buy a cd, i want to be able to rip to my mac, throw the disc into my closet, then maybe burn it back to cd for my car. that way i have the original, and dont have to worry about it getting stolen out of my car.
i also dont want to be told how to use the music i bought. "hey, here is your new car, now remember, only drive on these roads, and please dont park it anywhere except your driveway, oh yeah, if you want people to drive with you, better buy this deluxe family package, it comes with 4 seats."
would you buy that car?
