Yeah they're free streams. Last FM just did the same thing. There are tons of free albums but you can only listen to them three times.

I was looking at the site further, and it does just seem to be free streams.  It looks like they allow 10 songs on your playlist instead of just 1, but since I already have a player that plays up to a 100 songs that is kind of a step down.  Although, I suppose that songs would be from more legal sources.  If you want to purchase the MP3s you have to purchase them from Amazon from a link on MySpace.  I guess that the question than becomes is portability and ease of finding music worth the price of paying for something that you can listen to at any time on your computer for free.

I don't know, but I sincerely doubt it would be free downloads.  Free streams seems more likely.
