But I cannot take the horror of downloading an album more than 5 times without getting all the tracks, that is just useless.
 
 I spent so much time doing it and I feel it wasnt really worth it.
 
 I did enjoy the detroit cobras and
 
 Gorkys Zygotic Mynci though.  :)

band with unsuitable name:
 
 Death Cab for Cutie
 
 Sounds like some kind of thrash punk satan metal, it couldn't be further than that

I'm a little slow to catch onto things, so I apologize if this question has been covered already.  What is the monthly subscription fee for using Emusic?  I'm checking out the site now, but without signing up, I don't seem to be able to get the info.  Thanks.

it was $9.99 a month for unlimited downloading...which rocked.
 
 but now they are changing it. so something like $50
 
 or you can do a $14.95 membership but only get 40 tracks a month.
 
 talk about falling off.

I think the psychic meant that you were to build a rock club in a cornfield.

well in theory the amount of people downloading after the 8th will drop dramatically... so anything that been stashed is up for grabs which then can be downloading without problems at your leisure.

you have to remain subscribed and you be only be able to download whatever is in your collection, (the stuff already downloaded).  right now i'm filling up the collection by starting the download and then cancelling it.  once it's stored against your account, it can be downloaded later.  the only concern is getting terminated by trying to download to much... then everything is lost.

 Q: Will I still be able to download tracks I downloaded from EMusic prior to the introduction of these new subscription plans?  
 A: Yes, as long as EMusic continues to make the tracks available for downloading and you are subscriber to EMusic, you will be able to download these tracks again.  
   
 Q: Will multiple downloads of the same track count against my monthly total?
 A: Once you have downloaded a track (whether before or after EMusic's introduction of these new subscription plans), that track can be downloaded again without counting against your monthly total.
