[Jason S. Global Moderator]

[Plastique]

yes. I just added the forum link.

Thanks for the news! Anyone know if there is a full version w/o the the emusic bundle? I know all you have to do is uncheck it...but I would prefer to just have the standalone full version.

[NoNickToPick]

yes.  I just added the forum link.

It's good to see AOL is actually doing something with there spare time, too much bundled stuff though.

[k22]

crashed already on me on the full version w/out emusic. Advanced to the second song on the playlist (KAJE - Hey Buddy) and that made it crash...

[Plastique]

works fine for me.

Additionally, eMusic claims that it "was the first service to sell songs and albums in the popular MP3 format and the first company to launch a digital music subscription service." It also claims that all of its songs can be played on any digital media player, including Apple's iPod. Nullsoft's Winamp is currently including the offer of 50 free mp3s along with the free "full" and "bundle" versions of Winamp 5

Just installed the final version and curious why Alt+B is shown disabled... or was it always disabled, I don't recall that ever showing in the menu.
