    Just read the news about the Sony MusicPass.com. I think Walmart prefers the MusicPass model better than online download.

      I am thinking differently than most people than. I am trying to get rid of most of my stuff on the shelf. I want to go digital all the way, and store all my music and movies in harddrive instead.

    I think HP stopping the contact is a big blow to Walmart. It will take at least another half a year for Walmart to set up another site or teaming up with another partner. Maybe the problem is not in the partnership, but more on the business model for selling downloadable vidoe online...
