Well I did say I still love MP3s...

Obviously good points.

But we know now subscriptions =/= to ownership.

Also nothing stops us from potentially ripping the downloaded songs into MP3s and this gives you all the access to it. Or just go rip them off youtube.

I was just providing an easy solution that still gives the artists money. Philosophically, just using mp3's doesn't inherently give the artist any funds when I can just torrent/rip them.
