Music download services

Okay, so there's iTunes. Hooray iTunes. But I've become enamored with the Napster/AOL Music Now model. Namely, $15 monthly fee = unlimited downloads that remain yours to put on your MP3 player for as long as you're a member. With the option of then paying 99 cents if you want it permanently or want to burn a cd.

Only problem is...they don't work with iPod.

I found another service, emusic.com, which gives you completely unrestricted mp3 files that can be used on iPod, burned as many times as you want, etc. Really great, but because of such a permissive deal, they are mostly about indie music and such. Which is indeed cool, and if in a quick browse, it seems that they have the majority of the music that I've purchased in the past year, so it might be a perfect fit. But just in case it isn't, anyone know of any other good download services that are iPod compatible?
