I'm thinking of doing this too. Do you have to be a member a minimum amount of months before cancelling?

I copied and pasted the whole thing and then edited it down. It was a bitch.

i don't understand the point of having like 40 titles in your queue, that would take like 40 months.

i usually only have one album in my queue at a time, right now its Black Sabbath's first album.

Then I buy a lot of other stuff, mostly older artists in order to get (near) complete discographies, working on Dylan right now.

No. You can quit anytime.

I just signed up a few months ago. So far I've received...

Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger
Jayhawks - Rainy Day Music

Next up in my que is Chuck Berry - Great 28.

I just put everything there to have it in one place. I usually order one album from my queue a week. I don't just wait for one to come to me each month. If I did, yeah, it would take about 4 years.

Just added:

Run-DMC - Run-DMC
Public Enemy - Apocalypse '91...The Enemy Strikes Back 1991

I just became a member and I have a question. Why are some albums only eligible to be placed in your cart as opposed to your queue?

I think that's just for anything over $5.99.

Probably because its a double-cd or box set or cd+dvd or some type of special edition, then they aren't eligible for the price of $5.99. You can buy them, but you buy them one off, not as part of your monthly rate of $5.99.

Yeah, thanks.

They have The Cure reissues for only $11.99...that's an awesome price.

the best thing about yourmusic is the price at which you can get boxsets. i got that Faces' boxset for like 26 bucks, free shipping, when it's like 60 bucks in stores.

It's run by BMG so I don't think there are any ligitimacy problems. The few months I've been a member have been totally hassle free.

Yea, so far so good for me. I got Talking Heads - Fear of Music last month and will be getting A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory in a few days. And with the chance to get box sets for a low price, I think its definitely worth it for that alone.

Second Album Slump

Just joined yesterday; Belle & Sebastian - Dear Catastrophe Waitress will be my first CD.

I'm only up to "O" and I've already got 53 discs in my queue.

Bought 4 from the queue tonight:

Kings of Convenience - Riot on an Empty Street
The Delays - Faded Seaside Glamour
Funkadelic - One Nation Under a Groove

The fourth one is too embarrassing to mention, but here's a not very helpful hint: the name of the album is Gold.

I'm kind of annoyed that they list albums and then send me alerts that the album will no longer be available for purchase as to where it is in my queue.

I'll probably start buying some more stuff from here just to make the number of albums in my queue go down.

Bee Gees? Abba? Carpenters? Jefferson Starship? Ohio Players?

Do I win anything?

I may be a complete dork, but it's not Jefferson Starship.

I just moved that first Mystikal album to the top of my queue so I can reminisce about being 19.
