Awesome find Jim! So for 199/yr, you can download as much music as you want? How do they keep track of what computers/players you put it on? This could be very interesting...
For $119 you get all the music in Yahoo's catalog or library, what ever you want to call it. It is tracked via DRM of course. I believe it functions somewhat like XP gets it's keys from hardware. I can use it simultaneously on 3 boxes. If I want to use it on another box I would have to "deactivate" one of the previous installs via the preferences. You can only use one system to load up the mp3 player because the DRM licensed tracks for portability will be generated via that computer so if you use two computers you would have two different DRMed songs and only the last ones would work or something like that. Just learning this stuff and "white paper" like info isn't available.
