I'm thinking of trying it out to store mp3s - is it worth it.

or anyother suggestions.
thanks

i dont think it's worth it.
1) you can save playlists, but you can't see what entry is what file.
2) if your not on a super fast connection, you will have to buffer ALLOT.

It was a great place for music. I had over 600 songs stored. It streamed through my DSL connection like a jukebox. Now its gone! They're all gone. I have a pathetically tiny HD, so it was my only place to have mp3s. Now I have the 30 on my HD. Sucks!

Yes, you should've received an e-mail from myplay.com stating the fact that winamp.com and myplay.com are no longer affiliated.

www.myplay.com is now a separate enterprize. You can sign up there for a new locker if you wish . . . though personally, I wouldn't trust them to be around much longer . . . just my humble opinion.

btw, I had a locker with 3 songs in, but I never received any notification e-mail from myplay.com

Very dodgy!
