I've been using eMusic for at least a year now. It's been one of my top five regulary accessed msuci sites. Didn't think I would like a subscription service having cut my teeth on iTunes many moons ago.
So what changed my mind? Quite simply the content, i seem to find tracks, compilations and CDs that I haven't been able to find anywhere else. I'm a Motown, R&B child by nature, but over the past 15 years electronica, in a it's forms, has been a dominate force in my digital collection. Brasilsian electronica in particular is at the top of my list and eMusic seems to satisfy.
About six months ago they changed the pricing plans, again. Can't say I was very happy about that. Their policy of "use it or lose it" bites though and I've fought it twice via customer service. But I can say they are pretty responsive. I don't like paying for something up front and being forced to use it in 30 days or else. But now I make it a ritual to use the site often to get around this.
