Well, first of all, if you listen to music on a subscription basis, well, then by all means jump on it. I don't know whether Microsoft's offer is expensive compared to the (subscription) competition and actually, I don't care (see below).
Second of all, you can easily fill your iPod with about 50 bucks worth of movies, no need to buy 30,000 songs. And what about freebies? There IS music and movies in the iTunes store that can be "purchased" for free.
Also, I for one would never use any music subscription service 'cause that's not the way I listen to music. I like to have my collection of some special songs and (mostly) classical pieces that were sold on CD long before MP3 was invented. But that's me - I don't listen to radio, too - not ever.
And what about Apps? The iTunes app-store is a great thing and my iPhone is filled with apps and yes - Microsoft obviously can't even imagine that - they take up space on the device.
But hell, if you like Microsoft's products then use them - I turned my back on them about two years ago (after sixteen years of good and bad times with DOS and Windows) and never regretted it!
