The Zune Marketplace’s $15 all-you-can-eat monthly subscription does not cover the whole library — if you want the most popular songs, you apparently have to buy them in addition to your subscription.

That’s what I call a scam. And, knowing there could be such absurd demands from the music publishers (I hardly imagine Microsoft offering that idea by themselves — not that I’d put it past them, but I have even less faith in the humanity of publishers than of Microsoft), I lose any hope in ever seeing the iTunes Store implementing a monthly subscription (because, if Steve Jobs is willing to fight to keep a unique, one-size-fits-all for songs, there’s no way he’ll ever accept that — thankfully).

It’s just so cute.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
