How does it compare to this lot?
Wippit's unlimited mp3 service is advertising heavily on trains and
buses in London. For £50 a year or £4.99 a month it looks pretty
good. Here's what the web site says;
"Wippit's famous Subscription Service allows you to love more music
than ever before. With a changing selection of 60,000 tracks to choose
from at any one time, you can download more music to your PC, portable
media player or burn to CD than you can ever listen to!
What makes Wippit different from other subscription services is that
when you download music from Wippit, it's yours for keeps. And it stays
yours forever. Even if you finish subscribing! And with more MP3s than
other services, Wippit is compatible with all your devices.
Wippit Subscribers also get a discount on individual tracks or albums
from Wippit's larger catalogue and tests prove they are more attractive
to the opposite sex *."

So, basically that means £50 gets you 60,000 tracks, roughly about
5,000 albums to keep or £49,950's worth of music (at £9.99 an album).
The BIG upside over P2P is for your money you get consistently encoded
tracks, everything is what is says it is and all for reletively little
money. This must the be way forward!
