Hmm.. $10/month for standard, $20/month for lossless.  I think I'm still paying $4/month for Pandora.  Hard to pay 5x as much without a sound system that will make it worth while.  The speakers in the iMac just aren't that good, and I try to keep the volume low so I don't bother others.

But maybe I'm just not the target demographic.

And they say on their web site they support linux (via google chrome)*. I’m really impressed with the selection and the app seems nice for finding stuff by artist or song or album etc. REALLY impressed by the selection.  10$ a month for ordinary fidelity, 20$ a month for the hi-fi. But you can do a free trial (if you give them a credit card or paypal account). They claim to compensate musicians better…….
