MOG Rocks!!

[jhonsberger@msn.com]

I have been listening to a free 3 day trail of the MOG music service.

This company blows away Rhapsody,Napster,etc. By far the best audio
quality and a good web interface.Good music selection.

Hopefully there is Squeezebox integration in the near future.

Check out their 3 day free trial.Oh,I dont work for these guys.

Hey I totally agree, MOG blows Pandora, Rhapsody and Last.fm out of the water. The only thing they have that MOG doesn't is the ability to play them through my Squeezebox! It would be absolutely awesome if MOG would be included in my Squeezebox Apps. Please, please, please!

For $10 a month and the fact that the first 15 songs I looked up were not available, I'll pass without even listening (must be for people under 25). Funny thing is that they had the album on a few of them, but several (the most important) songs were missing from the album.

And why is it up to Logitech? WIth the huge customer base available of Squeezebox uses, why isn't MOG already streaming a format that the Squeezebox can use? I think that is the bigger question.

Can't seem to find what bit rate they stream at to PC. Anybody have an answer for that?

It's not just about Logitech writing an app/plugin to handle MOG, Mog also needs to make an API available to logitech to interface with their authentication server etc.

MOG streams at 320k, and it's $5/month on the web (mobile is more.)

Thanks for the info, couldn't find the bit rate and I wasn't spending any more time looking especially after not finding the music I was looking for. Seems all these sites are very limited in technical info and are geared to sales. The site I checked on said free three day trail then $9.99 a month IE $10. So I take it they have different plans?

Anybody compared this head to head with Napster? At least Napster already plays on Squeezebox and one gets 5 songs a month on one of the plans. Any Napster users taken a 3 day test drive of MOG want to chime in. Was thinking about paying the $60 a year to Napster since our daughter moved back home. That reminds me, I better disable the Last.FM plugin on that SB3 or somebody might think I have had more then a midlife crisis!

i think Mog has a $25/6months plan too, so, for the cost of 5 lattes you get access to ~8M songs for 6 months. pretty low risk if you ask me.

According to Mog support they do plan to support Logitech squeezebox products in the near future .

I can find most but not all of what I listen to and enjoy being able to download 320kbps music files on
My iPhone . No other service gives you that type of audio quality . Not near as buggy as Rhapsody .

How's their classical selection?

I'm not sure .I'm not a huge classical listener.Try mogs 3 day free trial online and search a bunch of artists

That will give you a really good idea of what they have .
