Naturally, when we heard the new about the eMusic/AT&T deal, the first thing that ran through our one-track minds was, "so, is it compatible with the iPhone?" The second thing that ran through our minds was, of course, "heck no, this is Apple we're talking about."

Just in case, we put the question to a representative at eMusic, who proceeded to confirm our dissapointment. "Despite AT&T also being the service provider for Apple's iPhone, eMusic's over-the-air service will not work on that device. Although the iPhone is fully compatible with Apple's iTunes program, it does not allow users to purchase songs without signing on to a computer."

Not that we'd really want to devote all of that time to downloading tracks on our iPhone's glacial EDGE network, in the first place. So there!

One would think that the iPhone would be the ideal platform for such a service. You should check out iPhailure.com for some good alternative views on the iPhone. I think you might like it. If nothing else, it's a refreshing change.
