O’Reilly: A Pressplay Test Drive.
After years of filling up hard drives with downloaded MP3s–both legitimate and illegitimate–I bring high expectations to Pressplay. If it and MusicNet represent a step forward morally, they’re still a step back technologically. Online users have seen how easy and fun it is to download music; now services like Pressplay will have to make it less work to pay for music than it would be to act as a digital pirate.
This jibes with my initial impression of Pressplay, based solely on the Pressplay FAQ.
