Google Music

Google Music was officially launched on November 26th, 2011. In my opinion it is the first real competition that itunes will face.

Some interesting facts about Google music:

- Partnership with Universal and Sony

- Efficient music management makes it easier and accessible to listen to music

- Storage space - 20 000 songs on Google servers.

- Supports many file types - MP3, AAC, WMA, OGG, FLAC

- Mainly targeted to the android market.

- Prices: Free up to $1.29.

- Used with Google +

- Artists can create their own page to market the brand.

I Think this is a great new product as it increases competition with apple and allows for another legitimate music distribution site.
