    Orb/Winamp requires your PC to be on at all times to stream.

    Amazon's service (and I assume Google and Apple's future service) is all hosted on amazon's servers, so the data is coming from Amazon, not your desktop at home.

    so, AMZ has mp3 albums for as low as $0.69. it appears you can buy one of those, and get the 20GB upgrade.

    In the middle of all that uploading and all of a sudden your computer crashes, then you start to upload again, does it start from the previous uploads??? Or, does it start uploading all over again, doing the same music you have already stored on the Cloud player??
    That sucks if it does that again, and I don't have time to organize which song I have on my itunes and Cloud player, too much to do, good lord...

    Amazon student members should have received a $2 credit to their accounts as well.
