"The site is the front end of a new type of music club: sort of a cross between Book of the Month and Netflix. Every CD in Yourmusic.com costs $5.99; no exceptions. The BMG catalog seems decent on first go-through, considering the price. This is a subscription service; your credit card is billed for one CD ($5.99) every month, and you control a queue (like Netfolix) that determines which CD you get automatically. That alone is a huge improvement over traditional book and music clubs, which make the selection for you, and force you to return undesired products. Once subscribed, you can buy unlimited additional CDs at the same price. If this thing gets traction it�ll drive music retailers crazy (it reportedly already is to some extent), as the CDs are sold below cost. "
