Agreed. I never understood the whole "Torrent as much as I can as fast as I can" mentality. I've got over 100 DVDs, 50+ Blu-Ray and HDDVD titles, in addition to 200 music CDs and a few hundred iTunes tracks. All purchased legally. I don't have time to watch/listen to them all, yet I know people who have (mostly) ill-gotten collections that would make mine seem insignificant in comparison. I just don't understand people's reasoning of having it just because they can. If a P2P song gets downloaded and never gets listened to, was it ever really pirated? (to play on a popular saying)
I'm all for a built-in fee on the iPod, and possibly a subscription-based model if it is reasonably priced. I just don't buy enough music to warrant spending $20 a month. $5 or $10 might be good, but it should offer unlimited downloading capabilities. Most of the stuff I'd get wouldn't be contemporary music anyway, so their Miley Cyrus empire will be safe for another day.![]()
I second this ^_^
