Remember Lala.com?

Back in 2009, it was the single brightest spot in the online music 
universe, with an innovative service that allowed customers on any 
platform to preview songs in full, for free, and a "music match" 
capability that scanned your library and gave you full online access to 
your collection from any PC or Mac. It also sold music, at prices that 
consistently undercut those in the iTunes store.

-- 
Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and
every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right
of an American... [T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the
hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust
in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people. - Tench Coxe, 1788
