Nevermind. Other sibling snatched up.

WTF is the deal with google doing this stupid "invites" shit every time they come up with some new crap? It's fucking stupid. Like anything to do with the single most ubiquitous company on planet earth is somehow going to be "exclusive".

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

Uploads your music to the account and you can listen to it anywhere without syncing your phone and your account (or whatever you're using it on). Here's their annoyingly slick site: http://music.google.com/about/

I was sharing something I like and find useful, that's all.

I think it is how they beta test.
You're a special case, Babylon.  You are offensive even when you don't post.

They let you request invitations, so I did.

This is some kind of cloud drive thing, right?

Oh, I wasn't directing my bitching at you, it was just a bitchy general observation.

Also, fuck Google in the ear. With a stick.

Cloud computing, in general, is a terrible idea.

I know, it's only music.  But wait until the day the music industry gets to check your credit card purchases against your actually owned music.  Because it will happen.

And then Google will ban you from every service they provide, and you'll be fucked for forever.

I like cloud computing because it makes filesharing ridiculously easy, and it's not that hard to just not put anything illegal on a cloud drive.

As far as checking your music against your credit card purchases, they would first have to somehow eliminate cash sales of music as well as music given as gifts. They would have to shift entirely to a non-transferable licensing model of music sales, which I have no doubt the major labels would very much like to do but I don't see much likelihood of successfully ending music sales at concert venues, or globally shutting down storefronts, anytime soon.

I admire your optimism.

I think the system is fucked enough that they might even get away with it, but I don't think they'll try. Not anytime soon.

I have my Amazon music on their cloud drive. I don't have anything illegal on any cloud drive, anywhere, because that's just stupid.
