How To Use It:

Open a conversation window
Hit ?oactivities?
Select the second one down: Music Mix
When the play list opens, add tracks to it and jam away?together!

Details:

Remember ?" you?Tre sharing a play list. If you fastforward, skip, or stop
a song, your buddy will hear the same thing you do.
Songs are not actually transferred to your buddy, only a compressed version
is temporarily cached on their computer while you mix.
Playlist file formats are wma, mp3, & wav
Music Mix holds up to 25 songs at a time, each a max of 20MB in size. You
must delete songs to add more
Album art info is shown at the top of the activity window only in the US,
but obscure songs can sometimes show the wrong album art.
the Search button only shows up for songs added by your buddy, clicking it
will take you to an MSN Music search for your song

Requirements:

Currently only available in the US, France, Germany, Japan, and the UK.
Requires WMP 10, which is available for Windows XP and up.
Now available on Windows Live Beta, but VERY SOON MSN Messenger users will
see it show up in their activity menu as well, so keep checking it.

Could be the country in your passport. Set your passport to US, and see if
that works

Greetings,

You're not missing much, I find MusicMix to be pretty boring myself.

I tried it with one of my contacts and in the end found it easier to
just send the mp3 in the end, so yeah, you definitely aren't missing much.
