Remote Access: Enjoy Music from Anywhere in the World

Yahoo! Music Unlimited and the Yahoo! Music Jukebox give you the power to access and enjoy your music from any PC connected to the Internet anywhere in the world. Here's how:

On any PC connected to the internet, download the Yahoo! Music Jukebox then sign in using your Yahoo! ID. When you do, the Yahoo! Music Jukebox will retrieve your music library and allow you to access all the music you have added from Yahoo! Music Unlimited. You will see a dialog box asking if you want to download the songs from your other (master) version of the Yahoo! Music Jukebox to this machine. Choose No if you simply wish this machine to stream your music from our servers, or Yes if you want all your subscription songs downloaded as full files. If you select to stream music, you will not be able to transfer to devices from this remote location. However, if you're visiting an internet cafe or travelling, you may not want to download many gigs of music when streaming is all you need.

Note that you may have a maximum of three machines active at any one time on which you can download full subscription song files from Yahoo! Music Unlimited. If you access a machine remotely and you have not reached the 3 machine maximum, you'll be asked if you want to download or stream music to this machine. If you have reached the limit, you'll be alerted you can only stream music from this remote machine.

While your Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription music will be available remotely, music you imported from CDs on your home machine may not be available. With remote access, the Yahoo! Music Jukebox can only stream songs for which we have a copy in our music library. So, if you imported a U2 track from a CD but did not add it as a subscription song, and we have a match to that song in our library, you would be able to stream it remotely; if we did not have a match to a song you imported, you would not be able to stream it remotely.

To hear full songs, you must be a subscriber to Yahoo! Music Unlimited.
