RIP

Yahoo is closing it's music store and engine. Yahoo's default music store will now be Rhapsody. Bummer. I loved Yahoo Music for years. It had a great site, great system, awesome customizations and more.

Truth be told, I thought it was much better than iTunes. I used to use their "Unlimited" program and pay 15 dollars a month for unlimited mp3's. Sure, they would expire if you didn't pay the next month, but for 15 dollars I got as many as I wanted and could put them on my Zen mp3 player.

I don't like Rhapsody as much. I did their free trial and I wasn't too happy. Their music engine doesn't flow as well, many tracks lagged and skipped and it just wasn't as user friendly.
