I would gladly pay extra to my VM internet bill if i could play the MP3's on any device i choose, and if i could burn the tracks to a CD. From what i have read so far, it seems we probably will be able to do that.

The questions is, how much am i willing to pay? I am not prepared to pay more than £5-£10 per month for the service. Music isn't worth more than that. If they are talking about £15-£20, then they can ram their service right up their down pipe.

Streaming tracks with adverts, a-la Spotify, and downloading unlimited track for £5-£10 per month, seems fair and reasonable to me. For about the past 5 years, i have spent about £0 or there abouts on music. The music industry could have £120/year off of me, and all they need to do, is set a fair price (and ask me nicely).
