Cloud music > mp3 music in 5-10 years

a new kind of futurism

Pandora, last.fm, playlist.com, music blogs, plus the future. Because playing files is less convenient than going to a website.

I have four devices to listen music on (my desktop PC, my mac laptop, my iPhone, and my car). Moving mp3s between all four is a pain.

There could be 3 checkboxes by each mp3 for "where else do I want this." If I check "Car," it connects via Wi-Fi and drops it there.

Microsoft can't hack cloud computing though. It's 2009 and between my laptop and desktop, file-sharing only works one way. (Guess which!)
