MusicMatch and Radio Free Virgin, the two online radio (streaming) companies will launch download services within the next nine months, in direct competitors with iTunes Music Store, Music Net and the current pressplay, among other services.
“Music Match plans to launch its service -similar to Apple’s – within the fall…it won’t be encumbered by any of the restrictions the current subscription and digital download services have. Radio Free Virgin is aiming for the beginning of next year – a little later than Music Match is, but still in the running.”
