Any users of the Amazon MP3 Cloud player here? They upgraded the system today and changed a few things.
#1). they used to allow up to 5GB of your own uploaded music on a free account. This is now limited to 250 of your own personal songs for free. For $24.99 a year, you get 250,000 songs of your own you can upload
#2). They added a scan and match feature. So, if you have a song in iTunes or Media Player already and Amazon is licensed for it, Amazon will simply add it to your cloud account at 256Kbps without actually uploading the song.
#3). They seem to be enforcing a 10 device limit on devices accessing the MP3 Cloud Player.
I've been very pleased with the Amazon MP3 store. I've paid anywhere from $2.99 to $6.99 for all of my CD's. I've never had to pay more than $6.99. Things go on sale frequently, but you have to pay attention, sales are quick and the items change rapidly.
