I’ve been subscribing to emusic for a long time, and I’ve found it provides me with a steady trickle of new songs along with the motivation to go discover new bands. Knowing that I have 30 songs a month to use, and that emusic only has the more obscure artists/albums, you have to do some creative searching.
I’m mostly using last.fm for discovery, and then I check with emusic before going to amazon. I’ve also got high hopes that emusic’s a new recommendation engine will make my life a bit easier.
All that was to make the point that its sometimes tough to find music you want on emusic. Fred, a bloggin VC and big time music fan, just posted his top 10 albums of the year and most of these can be found on emusic!
- Bon Iver
- Okkervil River
- MGMT (not that specific album)
- Jason Collet
- Thao
- She & Him
- Little Joy
- Vampire Weekend
- Sigur Ros (not that specific album)

If you want to try it out, I can invite you via email from my emusic account (you can always sign up on your own), and you get 50 free songs.
My name is Evan Bartlett, and I'm all about connecting people and finding better ways to do things. Every day life should be approached with the eye of an entreprenuer, so here's where I'll hash out my ideas on the intersection of sales, community, and product!
