I'd like the experience of those of you who have dealt with eMusic. I signed up for eMusic about a week before their recent decimating announcement. Since then, I've been trying to find and download as much as possible before their new policy kicks in.

Is it everyone else's experience that some tracks work just fine, some refuse to get started at all and some will send only a few kB at a time?

The latter is particularly frustrating under MacOS X, where their client refuses to restart partial downloads, starting fresh each time. Even better, it often claims that tracks falling in both of the failing types are completed, so I have to verify all of my music after it downloads. At least they seem to always put on trailing ID3v1 tags, so I can just check for their existence.

Anyway, I just wanna know if this is typical or if I'm getting screwed up somewhere.
