In this Wired.com news story it talks about how the deal made by the RIAA and NMPA that will allow subscrption based services to move foward, although some major bands are left out. The article also talks about Musicnet and pressplay the legal subscription sevices that are being produced by the record companies. “Both MusicNet and Pressplay will look more like a digital version of the mail order Columbia House mail order service, said Webnoize analyst Ric Dube.” Its a good article on subscription services. I like many on Zp.com doubt that this will be successful first you have to pay a month subscription for limited files that will play only on your computer and none other and you must keep paying the monthly fee or all the music you download and paid for in the past wont play.
