Yahoo will still have a version of Yahoo Music Unlimited without the ability to transfer music to your portable device and that will now cost $8.99 monthly, and $5.99 per month with the annual commitment.

pricing schemes gotta love them....
Yahoo Unlimited without the ability to transfer pretty much stays the same, however, the transfer option goes up? Yahoo's interface is a broken version of MusicMatch (which they bought out) and is really painful and slow (with slow downloads). I can't see any reason why you would stick with Yahoo! over the other stores that are out there.
I think they will go belly up if they keep raising their prices.....serves them right too.. yahoo music and other legal companies do not seem to get the fact that virtually ANY song can be gotten on FREE p2p for nothing!
Why should people pay higher prices for songs when they can be gotten for free somewhere else?

It's also alot easier to find what you want and get it almost instantly. If you d/l from P2P, then you risk getting anything, including a virus/spyware on your machine. The best way to go about getting music is to rip your own CD's if possible.

Most P2P sites give you higher quality files than what you get from the legit sites. While the likelihood of getting wrong files is always there, it has gone down a lot from the days of Napster.
