Not sure what's up but this sucks, YottaMusic shuts down

“Thank you for visiting. We’re sorry to announce that Yottamusic is no longer in operation.”
For those who haven’t seen the service, it’s the only reason to pay for Rhapsody. YottaMusic let you listen to the entire Rhapsody catalog (if you subscribe, of course) in a super-sleek web interface that worked on PC and Mac.
More details of what it was like, in an older post on the Hype Machine blog.

I’m a huge YottaMusic addict. This makes me quite sad. In addition to a beautiful web interface for Rhapsody, YottaMusic also did two other awesome things. It was integrated with Last.fm so my YM/Rhapsody listening history was kept up in Last.fm. And I could create playlists in YM and it would show up on our Sonos.

Oh, man, I’m gonna miss this service. Luke: how can we save it? Can we open source it? Something else? Let me know.
