MySpace Music Updates
Silicon Alley Insider says the MySpace Music launch could be delayed until next week and my sources also sound a lot vaguer than the once did about this week.- cNet says EMI – the lone major label holdout – is close to making a deal.
- I got an email from a reader that I had implied that existing Amazon contracts were all indies needed to be included on MySapce Music. To clarify, that contract is for download sales only. To get a share of revenue from streaming – a feature central to the new site – indies will need new contracts directly with MySpace. This same source claims that Merlin is in deep dicsussions with MySapce now and I know of several other distributors that say the same.
- Talking with the NY Times the CEO of The Orchard sounded as if their MySpace deal was already done.

I don’t know what new MySpace Music brings to the Music On Demand service. Aren’t websites like http://www.deezer.com/en already perfect, or almost, for that?
Still exists!
Its name is “Space Jammer” and it plays MySpace music and creates playlists.
You can buy the music you are listening to directly out of the program at amazon, musicload, 7digit, cd-baby or iTunes (vers. 1.4). You also can watch videos of the bands, send comments to them and much more. The program is freeware and available at:
