The Zune Marketplace has two options, rental or purchase.
For rentals, you pay $14.99 (1200pts) per month to download unlimited songs. If you cancel your subscription, the songs can no longer be played. This is in compliance with the RIAA's Digital Rights Managment (DRM).
For purchase, songs can be downloaded for lifetime play at $0.99 (79pts) per track.

True.
This is a common practice with services that allow unlimited downloads for a monthly fee (Rhapsody works this way). You can download whatever you want and listen to it as much as you want...as long as you're paying the monthly fee. The worry is that someone will download tons of songs for one month and never pay again, so that's how they stop that practice.
But the Zune marketplace also uses "points" which you can buy the song and keep it indefinitely.

You can put regular music on it like any MP3 player, but there's an option to pay $14.99 a month for unlimited downloads that will work as long as you keep paying. You don't own the songs, you are renting them in a sense.
