Which it is, and which is why the change is overdue. It's part of Monopoly's cultural role: to let people playact contemporary business, pretty...

It's compatible with the Windows Media all-you-can-eat subscription plan; for a flat fee of around $15 per month, you can download enough songs to fill it up. I tested the player with Napster To Go, and I'm happy to report that everything went smoothly. You can also use Rhapsody (a trial edition comes in the box), Yahoo or MTV's new Urge service, all of which have similar subscription plans...
