Apple Music Service
Posted March 4th, 2003 @ 12:45pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Details are just beginning to come in, but here are the rough bits as I know them right now.
- Apple is beginning its own music service (perhaps)
- At least 4 of the 5 major record companies are with Apple on this (maybe)
- That'd be freakin' awesome! (could be)
The LA Times, Railhead, and MacCentral have more. So does Ars Technica. And Slashdot. And the San Jose Mercury News (I find it odd that a music service that doesn't exist yet can "win kudos" already). Here's a good Slashdot comment from last December.
I'm not discounting this as a wild rumor at all. The involvement of the LA Times signals something unusual, here, but it wouldn't be the first time a formerly respectable site got sucked in by believing something on ThinkSecret or whatnot. I have some reading to do… :-O
P.S. Those who don't want to register to read the L.A. Times article will just have to view this page's source and scroll a bit…
