Yes, sad, but true.

I'm going to be shopping for a new service.

Fortunately, I've grabbed all my mp3's...

It didn't go down - it has a new owner.

Bartender? I'll have what he's drinking!

***It sure doesn't look like a simple transfer of ownership! It
absolutely looks as though all the content will have to be uploaded
again if one goes with CNET.

Personally, I'm probably going to move my files to the American Music
Center site, but they won't get as wide an exposure as mp3.com.

I was getting about 300 people every month listening to my music over
there, just "stumbling" upon it (to keep up the bartender metaphor...)
