First on a very general level i find funny that streaming looks like the solution for them to"keep they music"away from p2p and players.I have hours and hours of streaming music on cds.I just use an official software from a well know compagny,no more
Now,more of the answers are from people who have MediaJukebox.For other people,they will have to pay $25 for the jukebox and $6>10 for 2>24 hours a day streaming?I am not sure but do you have to pay on the top of the free or registered version of MusicMatch to get radio?If yes it is ullimited
I see it like a gun in the mouth
Streaming from a label catalogue against money 2 hours a day?Or streaming from house to work and streaming from one another as well in the 2 hours?
If streaming has it is now is part of the deal,who and how do you pay labels,artists?
I have a live bootleg of frank Tatatata in my playlist.King streams it,how do you pay Frank Taratata?
I have 'Man Alive" indee pressing of 100 cds from a Jerusalem band,how do you pay them?
Which kind of streaming?Songs?Full albums?
Which kind of music?The Emusic calalogue is a picture of my records collection.So i pay for it
If you give me a free trial streaming,mp3 of MTV songs,i will never use it.But for others it is the opposite.And again one label.
So lets take HTH.He has Emusic=$10 a month,a streaming deal around$12 a month,he takes the JRiver deal,$12 unlimited streaming.He needs a fast connection.He his close to $ 70 a month for get "air".Better to buy cds.News and second hand,you can get a lot every month
$1 a song?It means a sub standart quality for the same price ,if not more than the price of a cd with good sound,sleeves,lyrics,if you buy all the songs of an album on mp3
It can be a good deal for a kind of Greatest hits.But a greatest hits from ONE label....
I know there is a coast to put mp3 on the weeb.But it is a way to make more money,not instead of the main money comming from records sales.Try to sell hamburgers at the price of TBsteaks and you close the shop.A sub standart,is going to coast the same,if not more than the real thing!New word:less cost more.The day second hand cars cost the same than new ones,no way to sell them
I will use P2P softwares as i do since years.Get a message from Karolus or MHH"do you know this band,this one.try it they are great.I go to Audiogalaxy,get some songs in no time,listen to it,and 90% of the time i buy the cds.OK ,you need to have people of good tastes around you,to buy 90% of what you download.But Karolus and MHH are people of good tastes.....
The only price i find acceptable to get a full album on mp3 on one to one basis is the price of the cheaper ones on mp3.com,$4 the full album
I will not pay for ever of both formules.Or,if an illimited streaming,i will take a month,rip any songs and put it on p2p.Not as something against you,but against the labels.One label in this case,is name may start with a U i think
I will pay a small price or on the top of the jukebox.Kind of $25 ONCE to use Music01 as it is now.
I spend around |PLS| $500 a month on music,so money is not a problem.But if there is good programs as Emusic
