Hmmmm maybe it's my age, but I already know the
songs I want...heard them over the years. And since I've heard a
great many I have not problem finding a great selection of song
or I should say a great many that I will want to own. I thought
with iTunes one can sample can they not? Also the other
sources out there like friend who will allow you to listen to their
songs to expand my knowledge and selection gives me the
ability to only select on iTunes those I want to own.

Like I said with all the other monthly bills I have. Medical drugs/
Rent/Car/Gas/Heat/Electricity/Food/Cable/Phone/some I don't
recall and those that just pop up every now and gain adding
another monthly fee that will in all likelyhood go UP over the
months means that someday I will probably miss or be forced to
choose to drop my montly payment to Napster and loose it all.
With iTunes I own it from the first buck I spend and it will be
mine as long as I live..at least in theory. I mean at $15.00 per
month it is already for just renting at a price where I have to say
hmmmmm? How about when it becomes $20 or more per
month? And it's just to rent...nothing ever owned?
