eMusic.com… not impressed, sorry guys.

So my new jeans that I got came with 100 free downloads from eMusic.com. I figure, hey, my taste in music is pretty broad, 100 free downloads is a pretty good deal.

Not the case. Now maybe will have a different perspective than I do, but I can’t find anything on here I’ve heard of, save some really old CCR. I don’t know if we get the VD racks because we’re the free download crowd or what, but I can’t even find one thing I want to download.

The sad thing is that I really like their business model. $10 basic subscription gets you 40 DRM free mp3s. The more you pay, the more monthly downloads you get. I guess my big thing is that there’s nothing I want. Yeah, I could use my free downloads to discover some new hippies from Lithuania or wherever they’re getting their talent, but I would hate some analyst over there to see the traffic and deduce that I think their service is worth using.

So I’m on the fence. I might just have someone that knows something about non-mainstream music come over and knock themselves out.
