No, I just never liked the idea of renting, unless I really did want to leave the rental behind after a short period of time. No XM/Sirius for me, either and I don't pay for TV. I save most of my salary, spend only after careful consideration. I am mostly conservative with my money and avoid monthly obligations for anything. I will be very happy to finally pay off my shrinking mortgage; my only debt.
Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- > Anyone ever rented records, CDs, ... Ever wanted to? Anyone ever paid for XM/Sirius? What's the difference? (Well, other than that with Zune Pass you get to pick the music, you get to keep some of it permanently, and you don't have to buy special equipment to do it.) Or how about Rhapsody? It's about the same price as ZP but you don't get to keep ANY of the music. Or, here's a different way to look at it. The average price of a CD is probably about $15 and contains about 10 tracks. For the same $15, Zune Pass gives you one CD's worth of music PLUS unlimited access to the entire library. And the CD is custom--you pick the artists and the cuts. Are you guys really trying to say that this is a bad deal? If so, can you come up with any rational reason to say that other than it's an MS service? ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
