Store HERE 

They have three different subscription plans, the more you pay, the cheaper the tracks get per-track. In addition, you can buy individual tracks for $0.99…

What I don’t get is, if it’s a monthly subscription, does that mean you don’t get to keep the tracks? And if it’s a subscription plan where you don’t get to keep the music, why not make it unlimited songs as long as you have a current subscription activated?

They boast DRM-Free MP3′s so I can only assume that what this really means is this: You have one month per active subscription period to download your quota of tracks. Hmmm. So, unlike an iTunes gift card, you pay in advance but lose your money if you don’t use the funds in time.

I’m glad to see LimeWire launching a store, because at the very least, it’s good to have competition in this new market.

I don’t have the disposable income right now to sign up with every new online music store and buy tracks to see what the scoop is.
