Online Music Sites Face Tough Sell: Even though subscription music services have arrived, there’s been little fanfare, and so far almost no one is buying, according to the story. None of the leading pay sites, which include Listen.com, Pressplay, MusicNet and FullAudio, have done much to employ clever technologies to spice up the experience of discovering and purchasing music. Instead, they offer limited downloads that actually expire when a customer ends a subscription. Analysts estimate that less than 100,000 people have bought pay subscriptions.
