iMesh licenses Sony BMG music

But That Doesn't Make It Legal, Does It? Im Confused because I thought you had to pay for every download you make for it to be legal, and the internet sites that offer '12 billion' songs unlimited for a subscription fee were known as 'scam sites'.So If The Subscription Fee Was say, 8 pounds or dollars whatever, could i make 4000 downloads in that month and it would still be legal? how are the artists gona get paid???? lol, peace -Benjers

Answer: DRMed files that when you stop paying the monthly fee they stop working. You'll need an Mp3 player such as the iRiver H320 or H340 or any player with the Janus technology inside to access this service. What will be interesting is whether or not you will be able to Download full albums from this service or if they will do a bait and switch routine like Rhapsody, Napster, and Yahoo are doing. The only service that lets the on demand subscriber hear all the content that they have on their server as far as I know is MusicNow. You can find out more about it and sometimes test drive it at Circuit City. As long as these services that offer an all you can Download service continue to cheat the masses people will use the alternative p2p service. I guess the RIAA is playing an eye for an eye tactic. Cheat the citizens cuz they'll cheat on us as well.
