iTunes Music Match Arrives

"Two weeks late, Apple's match-and-mirror music in the cloud service iTunes Match has finally launched while retaining its beta status. In the meantime, iTunes 10.5.1 for both Windows and Mac has been released, so get downloading if you intend on using iTunes Match."

The bonus here, is that if you sign up for the beta, you get an extra 3 months of the service for free. The downside is that once the beta period is over, you will have all of your files deleted by Apple so you will have to start the process over again. Not sure I want to go through the hassle, but I sure would like to see how it is all going to work so I think I'm going to go ahead and bite the bullet, what are your thoughts?
