Goodbye Lala
Man this sucks….. Music Streaming site Lala was one of my favorite music sites to date. It gave me the flexibility of having my music library available for me to access from anywhere. One of my favorite features Lala offered was the ability to purchase websongs for 10 cents. By purchasing a websong you basically pay for the right to stream that song as much as you wish while you where online. It was a great deal if you are into exploring new music. Another great feature was the ability to upload you itunes purchases to Lala, this allowed you to stream all of you library as long as you had access to the Internet.
Lala had a lot of potential, they where ready to release a iPhone app that would allow users to listen to their content while on the go. That is until Apple bought them. when the news broke out that Apple had purchased Lala I told my self that this could only be good since this meant that Apple was getting ready to implement the technology used by Lala into their cloud based version of iTunes. This does not seem to be the case, it seems that the record label industry are being greedy (big shock here ehh?) and are opposing a cloud version of iTunes. They say that it is not fair for a user to purchased one song and be able to stream it to all of their devices. This irks me, I mean what the fuck did you do back in the day when people had multiple cassette players??? Did you force everybody to buy a cassette for every fucking player they owned? Seriously get a fucking life you greedy bastards. But I still have hope. If anybody can make a change is Apple, lets just hope that the quality of their offering does not get ripped to shreds while trying to appease to the record labels.
RIP Lala, we hardly knew you.
