Over time it will become less and less of a catch. In my opinion, music_on_the_cloud > music_on_a_disk. I assume they'll come out with a version of the player that caters to Android or iPhone (or possibly any web-enabled device with a Flash player). It's not full freedom, but it's also not even close to full price.

And what if your internet goes down?

What if you lose your job and can't afford your internet connection?

All of a sudden you lose access to that library of music. Let alone if the service itself goes down.
