First Non-Take: Yahoo Music Unlimited

Managed to find hack through (well, an educated guess) the new Yahoo Music Unlimited service site...it is here, and the new music software "Yahoo Music Engine" is here..
Subscribed, downloaded and installed it...the software is still very buggy. I suppose the Yahoo Music engineers will be working through the night to get it ready for tomorrow...
First impressions: looks a lot like Rhapsody and even behaves like it. The IM sharing things is working..
Pretty much everything else has bugs for now...I hope they don't mess it up like Virgin Digital, Sony Connect and Rhapsody 3.0 did, with tons of bugs and shoddy programming. Anyway, sorry for this no-review review...more when they launch a better version tomorrow...
