DailyTech - Yahoo Announces Death of Yahoo! Music Unlimited:

“Despite its strong focus on its music program, Yahoo has fallen on tough times business-wide, which have forced it to reevaluate its business.  First came the announcement of 1,000 layoffs.  Now the latest casualty is one of the pillars of its online music business, Yahoo! Music Unlimited.”

Well, here’s another one of the so-called iTunes-killers going back to ashes. And here’s another stone in the garden of “subscription music”. And subscribers of Yahoo! Music Unlimited will get their account transfered to RealNetworks’ Rhapsody, like it or not. And if they don’t like it? Well, they can stop paying and their music will be gone.

Unlimited, uh?
