Now wait a minute. Shoutcast stations stream in mp3 format. Does that mean that if you don't pay up, you can't stream Shoutcast radio stations?

LOL! There will be the most narrow and crappy selection of music available on the service that Virgin make available...

I mean what are they going to charge? £10 a month extra? Ok... well.. You actually think that they will give you access to UNLIMITED music for £10 a month to legally DOWNLOAD?

No way in hell will this take off when an Album in the shops costs £10 for a newer or good one....

So that supposed £10 a month could let me download say... EVERYTHING you have to offer?

I don't think so... Unless the selection is complete and utter BS.

You're the center of many arguments today for some reason.

Firstly and most importantly, I could care less why this service is of no use to you. Secondly, my previous post is accurate. Thirdly, I didn't accuse you of anything, I simply disagreed with the FLAC statement, so I'm not sure why you got so defensive.

That wasn't very nice. You are also not allowed to promote illegal file sharing on these forums.

Now come on guys, lets stop arguing.

It is offering UNLIMITED downloads, FLAC takes up to much storage space to make sense in an unlimited download scenario. While I prefer the quality of FLAC, I just wouldn't have the storage to re-rip into flac, especially since I have over 30GB of mp3's.

Good job I wasn't promoting illegal filesharing.

And this is going to suck. I said it, and it's not even out.

It will be better when more file formats are supported and there's a broader range of record labels on board.
