  I just told my friend about this deal and he got offended and stated "there is a service called bit torrent you know!"

      He's now ignoring me after I scoffed at him for thinking the deal is bad because he can just pirate it.

  I don't know if this is a band-by-band issue, or a record label issue, but several high-profile bands still don't offer their songs to subscription members (meaning that they still want you to pay to download in addition to the $14.99 per month)
  
  These bands include (and these are just the ones I remember off the top of my head):
  
  Dave Matthews Band
  INXS (their new stuff)
  Fallout Boy
  Aerosmith
  Red Hot Chili Peppers
  Kid Rock
  Boys Like Girls
  Evanescence
  Strata
  
  I expect that type of foolishness from DMB and Aerosmith, but assuming this isn't just a Rights issue, the other bands confuse me.
