I took the plunge and paid $10 for their LAME. They claim the Jukebox portion of their Media Center is free but charge a $10 license fee in order for you to rip CDs to your hard drive in. It's not a MusicMatch clone nor does it works as good but in my opinion it's the closet thing to being a MusicMatch replacement as we will ever get at this time. This is not a plug for software or anything but I will say I have been very happy using J. Look there's no magic pill, no tricks, gimmicks that's going to get Jukebox to play the way we want it to play. It's been 5 years since Yahoo! stopped offering support for the original Jukebox and 4 years since they stop offering support for their stupid stripped downed version and subsequently closed up shop. Have any of you considered that those who say they got MusicMatch to run perfectly on their Windows 7 computer (64bit Home Edition) without virtualization is just yanking your chain? I've tried some if not all of the tricks and nuisances that have been posted on this site with the same results.nothing. MusicMatch is dead and unless you're running XP virtual machine on your Windows 7 computer there's no other way it's going to work. I've been watching this thread off and on for the past 18 months and I have posted here (anonymously) previously about my love for the MusicMatch software but I think it's time that everyone who hasn't to just face the facts. I'm not saying this to be a prick, but to hopefully help those who haven't already get closure with this situation. Here, let me repeat it again if you didn't comprehend it the first time.

I think some of you need to read that one statement above so you can stop pining after what will never be again and just move on.
