    ARGUMENT AGAINST WAT U SAID.For zune, u get a full subscription pass plus 10 free songs a month for $15 a month so basically $5 a month.U get to keep all of the free songs u get.

    Oh rly? I didn’t know that…

  3. bluefisch200 said:

    But you can have 10% of your music after that…

  4. Miti96 said:

    You do if you “rent” your music

  5. bluefisch200 said:

    Hold on…if you stop paying you do not loose all of your music…

    The guy didn’t say iTunes once in the video…they just showed a pic as an example because Apple is the major competitor. :)

    this guy has a good point, i didnt realize this, mainly cos zune is so shit microsoft dont sell it in europe. renting music……nice one microsoft, bet that was that fat nobs ballmers idea. i donwload about 5 songs a month, so id be getting screwed left right and centre. microsoft will never overtake apple in the music market

    The songs are not DRM free.

    on zune you dont have to subscribe to the pass, you can buy songs a la carte just like itunes… you have the option of listening to more if you need to. I have 70 gigs of 320bitrate music, for me, that service is a total deal. ITs obviously not targetted to a person who listens to top10 music.. i mean seriously if i only had 100 songs on my mp3 player.i d be sick of it in a week. And the songs would be DRM free, because you get 10 free a month, so you d actually have 120 drm free songs for 180$

    I don’t even WANT all the songs. I might buy 3 songs a month, and an album per 3 months. Who the hell downloads more then 10 songs per month? I have all the songs I want, I downloaded them via iTunes. Last year, I bought like a 100 songs. It cost me like 80 dollars in iTunes. If I bought them using Zune Pass, It cost me like 180 dollars, and the songs would be not DRM-free, and the songs would be WMA, and not AAC. AAC is better then WMA.

  12. gn0s1s said:

    Apparently you do, because most albums have more than 10 tracks.. Secondly fine… an album 12$.. so for 3$ more you can have access to an entire library, and you only lose that access if you stop your subscription.. but the 10 songs drm free a month you get stay with you.. on top of that, it still has the option to buy songs like you do on itunes, drm free, for in most cases less money.. 79c or 89c a song..

  13. KenFrieser said:

    Those songs are not DRM free, like they are on iTunes. And who the f*ck wants more then 10 songs a month? And iTunes is like supercheap if you buy a whole album. I bought an album, that would normaly have cost me 50 dollars if I bought the songs individually, for 12 dollars in iTunes. So if you like spending your money on nothing, go zune pass. If you just want to listen to your songs forever, DRM-free, go iTunes.

    o well yuhh do gott a point there…butt for me itt dosnt matter cuz there is a web site called MP3 ROCKET nd yuhh gett unlimited down loads nd itt is ntt ilagle haha…Butt the thing i want to know which one is better…iPod or a zune..??? So can anyone tell me there opinan…

  15. gn0s1s said:

    Do you not understand that you get 10 songs a month DRM free IE you can keep them when you dont subscribe any more. So in essence you are paying 10$ for 10 songs… like itunes…and for 5$ a month, you have unlimited access to their music library.. would you pay 5 dollars a month to have unlimited legal access to music.. no = apple fanboi.

    no you can get eny song off itunes for free and I havent put eny mony in to microsoft for 5 years and you can hax the songes out of the softwher and how do you know hmmm hav you used it or did you just see the traler

  17. marq46 said:

    do you use this soft wher /site (I dont know)
    cos if you do that wud shit all over his argument plis say you do

  18. PropellerBusted said:

    $30,000 / $15 = 2,000 months
    2,000 / 12 = 166.666 years
    Hmmm…

    -OR-
    $15 x 12 = $180 per year

    Does anyone spend as much as $180 per year on downloadable music? The beauty of purchasing your songs individually is that you don’t have to by the entire album and can cherry pick the songs you like. And how many good hits area released a year?

    All music subscriptions are fail. Napster tried this too.

    ya thats what i thought it wouldnt be logical for them to do that and rent you music

  20. DupELcup said:

    Lets not forget about the 10 songs we can keep. So now if we want BlitzcriegBop by The Ramones, but not sure which version, now you can download every version and keep the one(or more up to 10) that you want.

    what ever u say… i thats what u think good for u

  22. rewdan12 said:

    Way to be biased you fucking iFag

  23. coolkid0310 said:

    umm………. its not renting u get to keep ur music

  24. mukatuna said:

    Yes they use an ‘inane encryption system’ commonly known as DRM (Digital Restrictions Management).

    Stop paying, the music stops playing.

  25. Snootwaller said:

    How do they prevent you from keeping your music? Do they sneak into your computer and delete your music files? Or is it some inane encryption system?
