If you own any music purchased from the Defunct MSN Music, come August 31st 2008 your music basically has an expiration date. The expiration date being the day that computer dies.
After that date Microsoft will not allow you to retrieve the license for any music purchased from MSN Music. What the F*#@? You mean to tell me that I spent nearly 100 dollars on music and I can no longer listen to it if I buy a new computer or MP3 player? Is Microsoft kidding me?
First Microsoft claimed they slashed the price on Vista, Then they screwed us with Ultimate Extras, belittled us with UltimatePC.com and is now screwing us over their Music we paid for. This just shows Microsoft has complete lost touch with their user-base.
Everyone can tell you I am probably one of the biggest Microsoft Fanboys, but I can only take the pain in my ass for so long, and I believe every Windows user and every body who has trusted in Microsoft over the past 2 years, has been screwed time and time again.
Sure there are ways of getting rid of DRM on my MSN Music, but why should I or anyone else for that matter become a criminal in the eyes of the RIAA because Microsoft decided to screw me.
So Microsoft, What the F*#@?
Microsoft should allow me to get free music credits with the Zune Market Place to make up for my lost music.

Come to think of it, I own MSN music so this does suck, and not to long ago I had to go through hoops to get it activated on a new machine because it would not let me deactivate an older one.
