Launching music search from Google
A good news for music lovers from Google is they are launching a new feature in their search engine for search, sample and shopping songs. Great ! Google will take supports from startups iLike and LaLa that enable songs ro streamed on the Google page including a “buy” button. When users push that button, Google will direct to a variety of different sites like Amazon.com and iTunes Music Store, where users can buy that music.
According to Reuters Google’s new feature will begins on October 28. This feature will get involve most of the major music labels including Vivendi's Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group and EMI Music. The record music industry has been struggling with plunging sales and fewer media outlets to break new acts. This has a high hopes on Google to increase the sales of the music.
The labels are beating by making it easier to search for music so that they can increase the size of digital market dominated by iTunes, with about 70 percent of download sales. Also, Universal Music and Sony Music are partnering with YouTube to create a new music video service called Vevo, which is expected to launch in December.
