After almost a year of thinking about getting it, I have now subscribed to the Zune Pass. My initial thoughts were not positive. What is the point of paying to just rent music? After you stop paying all your music is gone? I just didn’t see how I could benifit from it on the long run. Well, I was wrong.

20 minutes into my purchase, I had downloaded six albums! This is something I could not do before. 30 second samples turn into full songs, letting you listen to the full song before you add it to your collection — or buy it. ZunePass is really a great way to sample tons of music, the ones you really want you can buy. In the social, when friends send me albums, I can actually listen to the whole album and give a true feedback based on an entire album, not just 30 second samples.

You can subscribe for one-month or three-months. To people not sure, I recommend getting it for a month — try it out! You have nothing to lose.
