Pricing Raise

eMusic has decided to increase their pricing plan for new subscribers. The new price will apply to all members but there’s a few additional benefits if your account was active before July 17th. New members will have to pay $11.99 for 30 Mp3s.

Older member will have to pay $11.99 for 40 Mp3s.  On August 17th, all older members will also receive an additional 10 track booster for 30 days.

Design Raise

Since the past week, eMusic has changed their site design to reflect the Web 2.0 style ( which has now become standard).  This includes larger easier to read fonts and bigger graphics.

Album Pages

Albums now have a huge graphic of the album cover to the left. The track list is now displayed to the right. Below that are some newer toolbars like “Discover” that take you to other critically acclaimed albums and stories in your music genre. Below that is “Dig Deeper on the Net” where you can see videos from Youtube users that relate to the artist and a wikipedia entry. Thats if your artist has a unique name, otherwise you’ll see some strange unrelated videos.

Most of the other pages have not been updated to fit with the new design, so if they do, this article will be updated to reflect that.
