Loudeye Song Service Thinks Small

Loudeye is going indie, in an effort to provide a broader catalog of songs for companies looking to set up online music stores.

The Seattle-based provider of digital media services has launched a program called IndieSource designed to help companies building online song stores get easier access to music from small labels. IndieSource will let the independent labels license their music to Loudeye, which will in turn offer the songs to digital music stores.

Also on Tuesday, Loudeye announced a distribution agreement with Saregama (fka The Gramophone Company of India), a company that represents more than half the recorded music in India.
