Yahoo! Music Unlimited Canada Service Termination

How does Yahoo! Music Unlimited combining with Rhapsody affect me?

Rhapsody does not offer any subscription services in Canada at this time and only US users were allowed to transfer their service to Rhapsody. Yahoo! Music discontinued the Yahoo! Music Unlimited service in Canada on September 30, 2008.

If you were a Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscriber, your subscription has been canceled and access to the music in the Yahoo! Music Unlimited catalog is no longer available. You will no longer have access to the LAUNCHcast Plus stations and features included with your former Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription. Any subscription music you have saved to your computer or portable device will no longer play and the licenses for these tracks can no longer be refreshed.

If you had time remaining on your paid Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription after 9/30/2008, a pro rata refund has been issued to your account.

Will Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscribers in Canada be migrated to Rhapsody?

No, Rhapsody is not available in Canada. Yahoo! Music Unlimited has been discontinued in Canada and user subscriptions will not renew. If you had time remaining on your paid Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription after 9/30/2008, a pro rata refund has been issued to your account.

What will happen to all of the subscription music I have saved to My Music library in the Yahoo! Music Jukebox after the service is shut down or my subscription expires?

After the service is shut down, saved subscription tracks and albums will no longer play.

What will happen to the tracks and albums I have purchased from the Yahoo! Music Unlimited service?

Any downloaded music tracks you purchased from the Yahoo! Music Unlimited store should continue to play on your existing authorized computers and devices, but will not play on those devices if you upgrade your operating system. Because Yahoo! is no longer supporting the digital rights management licensing keys for those tracks, you will not be able to transfer those tracks to any additional or previously unauthorized computers or devices. To preserve access to your downloaded music tracks, we strongly recommend you back up your purchased tracks to audio CDs.

The refund offer period has expired as of December 31, 2008. Yahoo! Music will no longer provide refunds for tracks purchased from Yahoo! Music Unlimited in Canada.

I purchased Yahoo! Music Jukebox Plus. Will I be able to use my “Plus” premium features after Yahoo! Music Unlimited is shut down?

You will still be able to use your Plus features in the Yahoo! Music Jukebox to manage your local music files after the subscription service is shut down.
