but as far as paying....I like the full access to new releases, old catalog stuff that I may want to hear occasionally, ability to explore different genres, access to children's music that I DAMN sho don't want to be buying out right, it's a model that just worked for me since I was a Zune subscriber.
I guess it's the equiv. to cable TV...except I actually take full advantage of all the "channels" lol...

I use Pandora when I just want to hear some random stuff based off of one song though...
