Thanks for keeping me legal. I've loved so many albums and new artists that I never would have bought via 'regular' channels (and I haven't felt bad about the ones that I didn't like due to the accessible pricing).

I still remember back around 1999 being in meetings planning the launch of Yahoo Music and meeting the guys who were head of eMusic (and IUMA) at the time. Nice guys but I think they have been gone for a long time at this point. Woot.
