Because its near Christmas I decided not to point out that these
"replacement" sites are all terrible in comparison to what MP3.com had
going.

I believe:

http://www.garageband.com/

Bought all the mp3.com stuff including the user accounts etc. It does
say you can "resurrect all your mp3.com songs and content". I haven't
tried it. If anyone spends some time on it please let me know your
impressions including cross-platform compatibility etc.
