What’s the big deal?

This is stupid they all ready do something like this. So if their going to do a download service why do it half ass and not a entire mp3?

Stupid!!!

People are still getting used to paying .99 a song for downloading. I personally still think it's a rip off. Paying .99 to OWN something that you can only burn a set amount of times, you have to ALWAYS have a certain software installed to use, and you can't even choose the quality of the song you download (all services offer mp3's at 128kbps...sound quality improves GREATLY if you take it up to 160 or 192kbps) So I really don't think anybody with half a mind will pay MORE than .99 for part of a song....
But once you burn a CD of the songs you buy then you can re-rip them to use any number of times.

Also CD-quality is 128. I find anything over that is actually just extra space.


My 2 cents.

JUST GET IT OVER WITH AND DO THIS...

They need to just incorporate Satellite Radio into their towers and then you can access Sirius and XM on then handset.

And have some type of fm transmitter (or Bluetooth) to transfer the sound to your car stereo.

That way no matter what car im in I can have satellite radio.. I do to the gym.. satellite radio..

This downloading music is so stupid..especially on a cell phone!

It may be stupid, but plenty of people download the music for ringers and such.

Besides, everyone expects their phone to do everything for them..... including cooking dinner, doing their taxes, etc.
