Top100.cn is trying to survive in the most "toxic" (because hardly any customer wants to pay for songs) and competitive (Baidu is its formidable competitor) business environments in the world.

- selection of music, with recommendations and links;
- a subscription for cloud service, so that you can access music on different devices.
In Spock's words: "It's life Jim, but not as we know it." The music industry could take an example to the astrobiologists who now realise that their search should be much more comprehensive in order to achieve their goal.
