Anecdotally, I would never pay a monthly charge just to download
music.  I still have a hundred or so CDs I bought in the 90s, and once
in a while I'll get some bit of music from the Internet.  That's
enough for me.  But then I heard about the new Yahoo! music download
deal: $5 a month, download all you want.  I actually started to
consider it!  My curiosity was quickly quenched by the Windows Media
Player requirement.

I am watching this whole "unlimited download but DRM" thing with great interest. I can't imagine that the DRM is going to hold up for long once people decide, "Okay, I got all the music I want, now I can unsubscribe." and find that all their music vaporizes.
