If that were the case, Napster wouldn't be so popular. The ability to
download as much music as you want for a low monthly fee is very enticing.
It's like leasing versus buying. Perhaps in the long run, you lose out,
but it provides incredible instant gratification. And if you get bored of
music easily, why buy when you won't care about a song in 6 months?
