Talk:Urge (digital music service)

Considering the industry importance of this product, I'm surprised there isn't a lot more written about it. I'd like to see more details of how the service works, comparison with iTunes, Rhapsody, technical analysis (what formats does it save, etc.).

Zune?
Does it work with Zune? PureLegend 14:45, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

No, it does not work with Zune. Zune does not accept copy protected files from any sources other than the Zune Marketplace, including from Microsoft's own PlaysForSure, which is quite bizarre. HellsChicken 05:49, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I'll work on it.
This article is old and out of date, I will start working on this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GVegas16 (talk • contribs) 22:28, 9 March 2007 (UTC).

How does URGE derive its name?

URGE Radio (Digital Cable Music Service)
I'm going to update the article to add the URGE Radio service which is now offered to digital cable systems. I can't find any direct info on the service from MTV but my cable system added it this week.

Rhapsody downloads can be played in WMP
Rhapsody gives you the option to download either a .rax or a .wma file. If you specify for all downloads to be .wma then they can be played in Windows Media Player. However, I don't have an XBox 360, so I can't verify if they will play on it. Blutrot (talk) 22:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Urge radio is an awful product, my wife and I just switcheed cable systems from Tme warner to ATT u-verse. The variety is poor with urge. In fact we caught them playing the same play list two nights in a row on the same station at about the same time of night. Urge is associated with M-TV, what do they know about music. they make bad reality TV for 20 somethings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.8.123.104 (talk) 02:35, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
