CNET to launch free music site for indie artists

updated 09:10 pm EST, Wed November 26, 2003

MP3.com to be indie site


Shortly after buying the MP3.com domain name and announcing that its sprawling music archive would close, CNET said Wednesday it will start its own . CNET said it will create a new service similar to the old MP3.com early next year, offering free storage space, uploads and downloads for independent artists as part of its Download.com software aggregation site. "Download.com plans to do for musicians what it did for software developers when it launched nearly 10 years ago."

    nice idea

    this offers a transition to online music stores like the iTMS when the independent artist want to go commercial (well, once iTMS starts offering music that like anyway)
