@ DH: Google Music Council?

Picked up this bit at the Digital Hollywood pre-show today: Google is holding an invite-only music roundtable this Thursday at its HQ with 20 of the top executives from the music industry. Not sure what they’ll talk about, but I’m assuming it is one of two things or both: Google explaining its plans for a music vertical and/or seeking education about the music industry and how Google fits into it.

Staci adds: Google tried to zig where Apple zags with Google Video by offering variable pricing. Knowing that’s something the major music companies publicly desire, I’d expect that to be a key aspect of a Google music vertical. I’d think the music reps in turn might stress the need for better design and interoperability.
