This eMusic blockchain is going to end badly.
That is exactly my view. As Soulcoal says it is a means of last resort. I'm just making sure I have everything I want from the very limited choice available there at the moment…

I've been playing a lot of Eric Clapton in my car recently, perhaps I ought to play that Radiohead album too? I'll search it out, as I don't think it is on my iPod.

A fascinating article - I particularly liked - “They’re like if the Wright brothers sold air miles to finance inventing the aeroplane.” The South Sea Bubble came to my mind or the Dot.Com Bubble. I am certainly not suggesting eMusic is doing this fr…

I agree, overall we do benefit from album pricing particularly when there are a few tracks. It can also help to know some of these albums do exist to buy elsewhere!

In answer to my own question above, for upto a year eMusic will run 'flat currency' alongside Emus, but eventually all purchases will be via the new system. On one level, I see the logic behind their move in that it is much more dynamic in terms of …

I'd have bought that Mississippi Blues album at 99p, but it is £15.74 here: at Booster rates it would still be £7 or £8 to me, almost certainly cheaper elsewhere. We've not had Domino since the majors joined eMusic, quite a few years back now.

Thanks for the reminder of that Al Kooper album, Confused - an early eMusic purchase for me. I'll add it to play later.

Oh for the days a few months ago when I could download ECM from eMusic, Doofy! But you have led me to another ECM album

Interesting, those Fingerprintz albums are no longer available, at least in the UK. The two Planet-P Project are available here, I quite liked the samples, but the prices are very different at £6.72 and £10.92. I've added to my Wish List for later, …

One query I have, which seems not to have been mentioned anywhere, is what will happen to the existing eMusic? Will all their customers be using Blockchain? Or will the existing eMusic continue in parallel. I, for one, have no intention at the mome…

I haven't listened to any 10cc in years, not even sure I've got any in iTunes. I'll have to search some out. Quiet Sunday morning, so my usual gentle jazz, well not quite so gentle!

@Confused - thanks!
Currently playing through all my Aretha Franklin tracks. I've heard some many extracts over the last day on the news, i want to play the full trac… -
Aretha Franklin, what a loss

@BDB - I see your points about Joe Bonamassa's album. It reminded me very much of going to a local blues club in the !960s with mainly local bands playing covers of many of the same …

Announcing the eMusic Airdrop!
Hi all! If you're a non-US resident, you can now participate in our first-ever EMU Airdrop…

Another very hot day, possibly the last this summer, t…Well, I've learnt a new word today! As a reader of the sub-reddit rather than a contributor, i find this all fascinating. Interesting, they (eMusic) do not want people to be critical of the organisation. Any such organisation must be in a bad way - …Sadly, I will be utterly amazed if eMusic is still here this time next year. If they can't get it to work on the current model, I cannot see how anyone will invest in them to the extent that they want...
