This is pretty funny, so I had to post seeing as how it happened this morning.

My original post: E-Music.com Sucks, which I posted yesterday, had two comments already…from a couple of eMusic Lovers, Stevie, and Mr Shag Wellington, who by the way both posted within minutes of each other…a bit of a coincidence, wouldn’t you say?

Anyway, the first one I read was from my new friend Stevie, who claimed to not be an employee of eMusic: “I know you are probably thinking that I work for eMusic but I don’t.”…turns out Stevie is a liar, as the notification of a comment came to my inbox: Author : Stevie (IP: 38.105.162.11 , cogent-pat.ny.emusic.com).
Silly Stevie…how’s the view from the 17th floor?

I wondered how 2 people supposedly that don’t work for eMusic could find a post that just went live yesterday, 5-28-09; when I did a search in Google for eMusic sucks, it showed up on the second page of eMusic sucks results…it must be a popular thing.

Now I’m thinking that Mr Shag and Stevie are in charge of reputation management for eMusic…I don’t think they’re doing such a good job.

Anyway Mr Shag and Stevie…or is one of you actually Felix?, I suggest you don’t use work computers when replying to the many eMusic sucks blog posts…also, and this is for you Stevie, don’t lie…it’s unbecoming of you!

So I joined eMusic.com and signed up for their monthly subscription program, which is reasonable…but their music selection is extremely limited so after a few months of paying and not finding any music I liked I cancelled my paid membership because it was a waste of money.

When I cancelled I still had about 60 downloads available, so I figured I would log in at a later date and see if they had a better choice of music so I could use those downloads…I just logged into my account to do just that, but noticed that there were no downloads available in my account…I proceeded to click on their live chat support.

Felix was my “customer support representative”, I don’t mind using his name here because he was kind of a dick, the conversation is below:
Me: What had happened to the downloads in my account…(he had to look in my account)
Felix: “I see you cancelled your account”.
Me: “I cancelled my paid membership not my account.”
Felix: “If you joined a gym and then cancelled your membership, would you still be able to use the facilities?” (he used the gym analogy several times, probably due to lack of an intelligent answer)
Me: “If I paid for a trainer at the gym and then cancelled my membership, I’m still going to use the trainer.”
Felix: If you reactivate your account I can add a month of downloads as a gesture of good will.” (Gee thanks Felix for doing something that would be done automatically anyway.)

Me: “This is a class action suit waiting to happen.”

Felix: “Ok., Is there anything else I can help you with?”

I didn’t type anything else and just closed the chat window,  several things to say did crossed my mind, but that wouldn’t have done anyone any good.

The moral of the story: eMusic.com sucks ass! Their music selection i marginal at best! Don’t waste your money!

Felix if you’re reading this, you need to do something with your life instead of projecting your misery on others. If you don’t like your life and what you do, simply change it…yes it is that simple!
