Best Buy Releases Their Own Music Cloud

Posted by Soulskill on from the johnny-come-lately dept.

thewebblogger writes "In a move that more resembles 'me too' behavior rather than a well planned release, Best Buy has announced their own music cloud service, called simply Best Buy Music Cloud. The functionality is not complete yet; iOS / Android applications are not available at this point, and the only part that works is the Web Player. The premium version will cost $3.99/month and you'll have to upload your own music. iTunes is mandatory."

    That's a truly brilliant plan. Only the people who contribute can vote, and, ideally, let's make the people whose votes we don't like unable to contribute. Or perhaps let's simply define `contributing' in such a way that they can't be doing so. Then... Hey, then we get to the pre-Civil Rights Act, pre-women's sufferage country we all knew and loved!

    As a bonus, since they can't vote, they can't really change things so they *can* contribute! Perfect!

    Oh wait, no, there's a reason we don't do shit like that. With the exception of ex-convicts, with whom we SHOULDN'T do shit like that.
