Wow... this addresses a problem I've been having with them as well... they have absolutely no support. If you try to get support, you will get spammed by their autoresponse system. I had an account from about a year ago, and even though my page is still up, When I login, I can't access my song library...I'd assume if you'd actually pay them $20/mo, they might actually answer your emails, but who would take that chance... nothing that they offer is even worth $20/mo. I could see maybe $5, but $20 is ridiculous ($240/yr!). Web hosting might cost as much if your using a lot of server space, but they provide that part of the service for free. Thanks for the links! I can't believe they are pulling this crap when they have some many free competitors. -pb :) -----Original Message----- :) From: Bill Fox [mailto:billfox@fast.net] :) Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2001 10:56 AM :) To: ElectronicMusic@yahoogroups.com :) Cc: beyond_em Onelist; SYNTH-L; Analogue Heaven; GoldTri; Loopers :) Delight; new age radio; AIMusic Onelist; Space Music List :) Subject: Re: [ElectronicMusic] mp3.com :) :) :) -----Original Message----- :) MIRAI asked: :) >> Have I misunderstood something. :) >> Or has Mp3.com suddenly changed its tactics? :) >> I.E. you have to pay 20.00 dollars a month :) >> to be part of their P4P system? :) >> MIRAI :) :) :) Glenn responded: :) >You didnt misunderstand.
