RIP eMusic?

[vastar iner]

Dunno if anyone else uses eMusic, but I've been going through my wishlist and perhaps 75% of it is no longer available.  I'm not hugely bothered as those were "if I can't find anything else I'll try those" entries, but there has been a total haemorrahge of labels from eMusic in the last month or so (e.g. Slumberland, Secretly Canadian, K).

Frankly, the only reason why I haven't now cancelled is because I'm grandfathered in on a sweet deal, but I'm wondering if the entire thing goes kaput by the end of the year. 

So, if you are on there, might be worth grabbing what you can while you can.

But it's another blow to those who want to "own" music rather than stream.

I was subscribed...well I hope I cancelled..lol

It was good for finding difficult tracks to fine, but found another source that is cheaper with a more extensive library for downloading tracks.

I thought emusic was to have a makeover?

I cant say i know or heard of emusic.

But once again it does seem they want or force people to stream.

I would rather have a physical or mp3.

I want to own the stuff i pay for and not use music like a library as if im just borrowing

I signed up to eMusic once but left quickly when I couldn't find most of what I wanted on it.

It was like: pay first, then hope to find what you want later.

A bit like the issue I have with supermarkets that give you free parking if you pay at least £10 in the store but what if nothing you came to buy is in stock?
