Google Launches Music Search Service

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

This week Google extended its services with a musical one that offers free streams and downloadable MP3s but probably to see in it a challenger to Apple's online music market would be too soon. The idea of the service which uses Google’s Onebox search feature (which presents the user with contextual information for his searches), is to enter a music-related term such as a track title, artist, album name, or even some song lyrics and it will display results with a song clip if one is available. For now, at least, Google's Music Onebox will only be available to U.S users.
