EMI record label is planning to start it’s own online music service by the end of this year. It shall also include some free music content, said Reuters. It seems that all kinds of record companies are slowly, but surely try to explore the Internet as a source for selling music. CD days are fading away, and it becomes more obvious every year. Mp3 revolution is simply unstoppable. This new service will be located at their official website, which is currently used only to post news articles and all sorts of the relevant information about music industry. Company’s representatives are calling this project “experimental laboratory”, and everyone can only say good luck to them. It means all kinds of things and possibly the major one is to try something what everybody is doing these days – the online distribution of music versus CDs.
By now EMI is participating in a number of similar projects. For example, the biggest one so far is Comes With Music (Nokia). Buying an expensive cell phone gives it’s owners a free access to their music catalogue during one year. They also work together with YouTube and MySpace Music.
