Yahoo Music Engine

I become a bigger fan of Yahoo Music Unlimited with every use. I've been a subscriber for over a year and continue to discover new features and value in this great online product. In the past week what I've really grown to love are playing other folks play lists. You can search by playlist and then play a collection of music based on someone else's suggestions. Yesterday it was jazz vocalists, road trips and old country play lists. Combine this with the ability to play any song that pops into your mind or that you read a review of and add any of it to your personal music collection or your mp3 device.

I don't understand why iTunes owns this market, except for the Apple marketing machine. Why would someone pay per use without having a personalize radio, playlists, suggestion engines and unlimited access for $69 a year?

I agree. I was an early adopter of the Music Engine, and I stopped my subscription a little while ago, but I loved the Yahoo Music Unlimited. Anytime I wanted to hear any song, I would just pull it up and listen to it. What could be better than that?
