So the deal is with AOL Broadband…who wants to download music on a dial-up anyway? Hence the ramifications may not be as widespread as I initially thought. They will only be as big as AOL Broadband gets.
Again, how big of a gateway would ISPs become to music services?
It seems that Napster would get a big play on MSN/Microsoft? Some people are already talking about Roxio buyout by MSFT. RealNetworks’ Rhapsody has a deal with Time Warner’s other ISP RoadRunner…
What other ISP-music company tie-ups are there? Any thoughts/comments?
