release: These are interesting news. Finally href="http://www.emigroup.com/">a major record label decided to
go on the MP3 bandwagon and are going to start selling music from
3000 artists online.
My hopes are that this will:

  • Lower the record prices (a lot).
  • Enable consumers to buy on a music per music base instead of
    having to buy entire records.

Prices are still to be announced. We can only hope.

Already more than 20 music retail websites from six
different European countries are gearing up to start selling EMI’s
new downloads and will go live at varying times over the coming
weeks. Additional retail partners are expected to join the
programme in due course.
