If anyone has baught any music in this way, and wishes to continue to be able to listen to their songs on different computers, they will have to copy the songs to those computers before the servers are shut down.

If you ever buy a new computer after the shutdown time, you can't play your music...

Copy to CD's and DVD's while you still can people!

Good to see DRM was finally found out. It did nothing to stop piracy and everything to stop honest decent people from listening to the music they had rightfully and legally bought.

Indeed, I think it's a horrible concept. What angers me though, is all the people who have acquired music through this channel, and now need to stick to one PC and one O/S and pray it never gives up the ghost. Otherwise those songs can never be listened to again.

I currently have one album and one single track that require a DRM license and it annoys me that they are shutting this service down.
