Sony to launch a Online Muisc store Vs ITunes
Businessweek reports that Sony plans to launch a store that will compete with iTunes. Like iTunes, Sony’s store will sell music, movies, books and downloadable apps for smartphones and other mobile devices. The tentative name for the online store is Sony Online Service.
On Nov. 19, Sony said it plans to launch an online store selling music, movies, and books as well as other downloadable applications for mobile products. Sony’s top executives didn’t specify when the Internet store, tentatively called Sony Online Service, would go live or what it would look like. But the online storefront, announced at a management strategy meeting in Tokyo, is likely to bear some similarities to Apple’s iTunes store and would be Sony’s most ambitious attempt to link its products to its own vast library of digital content.
The article says Sony wants its store to differ from iTunes. One difference is that Sony members will be apple to have accounts they can upload videos and other content to.
Sony will try to differentiate its service from iTunes. One example: Users will be able to upload videos shot on camcorders, save photos taken with digital cameras, and post other digital content to their personal online accounts. That’s how Google’s suite of Net-based services (such as YouTube video-sharing and Picasa photo site) works.
Internet Retailer says the new Sony store will be based on the Sony PlayStation Network’s infrastructure, billing and log-in systems.

Some time before, I really needed to buy a building for my organization but I did not earn enough money and couldn’t buy anything. Thank goodness my sister adviced to take the credit loans at creditors. Therefore, I did so and used to be happy with my credit loan.
That rss feature on your site here is amazing, you should tell people about it in your upcoming post. I haven’t noted it a first, now I’m using it each morning to check on any updates. I’m on a really slow dial-up link in Brazil and it’s quite hindering to sit there and wait for such a long time ’til the page loads… but hey, I just found your rss page and added it to the Google Reader and voil? – I’m always up-to-date! Well buddy, keep up the good work and make that rss button a little bigger so that other people can enjoy that as well
Nice site design, love it!
good work is on.
