I was reading up on the pirate turned white hat Grokster network Smashboxx and I'm just amazed at the limits. Granted they are offering something more than what was available in the past, but it just doesn't seem like the major labels are getting the hint. I say this, since it has yet to be determined what the price will be per track.

You bet since the major labels have their hand in this that it will be more than the typical $.99 per track as well. In the eyes of Big Money, you have to cover all your expenses and losses, to them the try before you buy is a loss. I'm anticipating tracks ranging in price from $1.50 to $2.00 when it finally launches.

I've signed up to be notified whent here is a beta release available. It'll be interesting to see how extensive their supposed library is. There has been no announcement how Mashboxx will handle illegal content on their network, if it's not owned by one of the record labels that have signed up. Does that mean they are just SOL?
