This is ludicrous. Apple is essentially getting their product free, and while the ‘trial period’ is only 3 months, many will download everything they can during that period and then walk away after the period is over, leaving the artists without any real revenue...................

Red, it is NOT a download service, it is a streaming music service similar to Netflix. Downloading is locked out. While some people could convert the downloaded files to mp3s they would not be in the same quality as the stream nor would that be an easy proposition to accomplish. "Most People" could not gain access to do it.
