Consider that the previous music "streaming" technology was radio, which was free, and $10 sounds expensive. Except that $10 a month is now the final product, and basically presents a dead end to the music sales funnel outside of concerts/collectibles. I am still paying for my downloads because I like weird artists and I think it is an important vote that I really like their music and want them to continue producing more. That is a luxury few afford anymore.
