I might be willing to pay ~$2/month for an app on my phone that would stream all mainstream music at decent quality over the cellular network. Imagine a package deal for people who don't already pay for 3G data plans. Like $5 or $10 per month for unlimited listening to whatever you want wherever you are. I'm not expecting it to happen, but it sounds cool to me.

Not sure what positives anyone takes from this "initiative" beyond "beating Apple". DRM, hardware lock-in, paying for your music for the rest of your life or losing it, ISP's raising the prices for everyone to pay for just those who want music...It has EVERYTHING. Exactly.
