Silicon Valley - Dan Gillmor's eJournal - Why I've Cancelled my EMusic Subscription

Dan Gillmor on why he decided to cancel his emusic.com service.

was becoming a fan of EMusic, the MP3 download service that a) treated people like non-thieves and b) had a sensible business approach. But the company has gone through a merger and just drastically revised the terms of service to include this downgrade:

"As of November 8, 2003, EMusic will be discontinuing the unlimited service offering and replacing it with a new service offering that places a reasonable limit on the number of downloads available to each subscriber in a month."

I haven't decided yet if I will cancel my account, but I am leaning towards canceling.
