I think instead of the monthly service it should have been a per song pricing, but this is a good start and it'll provide a constant revenue line for the music department of AT&T. I welcome this move and think it'll spur more activity with OTA material. I can say this is confirmed :)

Even still, I hope eMusic and AT&T take some time to come up with a friendly interface for this service. For the time being, I'll continue to transfer music to my phone the way Victor describes. Much faster for my purposes.

I don't like the monthly pricing (AT&T has some jacked up pricing ideas, imo) but the convenience of being able to download music on the go is phenomenal. I've been doing it with Symella on my N75 for a while now. Convenience, Victor.
