I just got an e-mail from United that offered me 5 free songs from Connect Music. I do not know much about the competing services, so I followed the link and found that Connect was owned by Sony and that some features would not work since I wasn't using Intenet Explorer.

Thank you Firefox.

BTW, I love their privacy statement.
