I realize it may seem like I enjoy reporting on these failed or failing music services, but the purpose of this log is to demonstrate how risky it is for JRiver to align with them.  I wish it were different.

What does "align" mean?

Become a partner with.  Work with.

I honestly don't know what they were thinking when it comes to their media streaming/purchasing options.  They should have left their old store alone IMO.  I bet groove had a whole five users on it at any given time, and MS Movies & TV is probably about the same.  They already had tight media integration with the OS in WMC, and they broke it all to launch a bunch of failed services instead.

Do you think Spotify or Apple music would be interested?
And if so surely the risk of either one of these big players going belly up is incredibly low.
