Regarding Xbox Music, I thought it was too good to be true. Fine print: Free streaming limited to 10 hours/month after 6 months

Understandable, TANSTAAFL. 6 months is still great value, MS should definitely market this more.

Good catch. I guess I hadn't used it long enough to run into those limitations. FYI they have an Android and iOS app as well as an incredibly nicely designed web player. http://music.xbox.com

I'd exhaust that quota after just a couple work days!

Why are they being so stingy with just- 6 months?

Umm, so the company that is giving away free streaming is stingy? How would you describe someone who complains about free things, or an unwillingess to pay for a service?

Gold membership isn't free...
