Multiple sources have said that Google allegedly secured content rights from almost all the major music labels over the past few weeks. All this is going towards a new service that Google is starting up supposedly called ‘Google Audio’ which is a kind of a basic name but fits the spot right. This service is going to start out in the United States but it is said that it could go global.
“We’re still gathering details, but our understanding is the service will be very different to the Google China music download service that they launched in 2008,” the report said. “That service, which is only available in China, allows users to search for music and download it for free.”
One thing that is unknown is whether or not the new service would provide purchase and download of content, like iTunes, or another format, like streaming
