This will be nice! No DRM infestation

But I remember mp3.com from several years ago where you could download music from many unknown artist without any DRM infestation.

But nevertheless, it will be nice to see this service, and I hope they make the download process easy, no special software needed....Just click the link and it downloads.

Yep!

I don't believe in piracy, but I hate DRM, and I despise having to install crapware that slows down my PC and eats up my disk space. These kind of restrictions **** off legitimate customers like me, and turns me off toward any company's products.

Give me more artists

Better yet, The main reason I loved MP3.com Pre-sell out was access to thousands of unsigned and local bands. The ability to sponsor an artist with monthly or donation based subscriptions. Have 1 to 1 communication direct with artists and the ability to download samples and track (sometimes whole albums) for free in an open format.
