    Wow, this looks like a crazy deal. Especially having SACD's, I'm flabbergasted, but glad they don't have any I've already bought or I'd feel bad :)

    Guess I'll sign up too... I wonder if this is sort of an experiemnt to compete with iTunes, will be interesting to see if they start advertising this service in the future.

    I decided to go ahead and stick with the deal, even at 5.99. I have received several CDs from them, all good. I had one transaction where they sent me the wrong CD, but they resolved it quickly, sent me out the correct CD and let me keep the other free of charge.

    Overall I'm impressed...was a little pissed that they went up to 5.99...but they have a right to set the price at whatever they want...as long as it stays reasonable, I'll stick with them...

    I've been happy with them as well. Shipping is a little slow out to Seattle. One CD case arrived cracked, but the disc worked fine. Considering the price, its a pretty sweet deal.

    That's one of the first I picked up...lots of good SACD stuff and there's a couple of dualdisc titles now also...

    The SACD of "Carpenters - The Singles" has just been added. This one is highly praised.

    Just received this e-mail from yourmusic.com....
    Starting on May 13, 2005, we will be increasing the monthly fee and CD prices at yourmusic.com to $5.99.

    The nerve of those people increasing the price of a new CD/SACD to $6.00 (including shipping) :D As a member who used to get CD/SACD for $5.00, this wasn't unexpected. Still a good deal though.
