on the main topic, i have to agree that plays for sure doesnt always play for sure. it only does so as long as your 'subscription' aka tether is valid. when i pay for my music, i expect to be able to listen to it whenever i want. if i want to try new music, i'll tune to the nearest indie rock station or turn up the volume on my sirius or xm receiver.
