Google's Music Search Engine Quietly Vanishes From The Web
At the end of October 2009, my colleague Jason Kincaid traveled all the way to Hollywood, Los Angeles, for the official unveiling of Google's new music search initiative by the Internet giant and its partners, Lala, Rhapsody, imeem and MySpace Music / iLike. He interviewed just about everyone involved about the news, and Mike Arrington followed up with a post basically calling out Facebook and Ticketmaster for not acquiring iLike instead of MySpace.In a blog post, Google said that, going forward, a simple Google web search would enable users to "search and more easily discover millions of songs". Queries for songs, artists or albums would return search results including links to an audio preview of those songs provided by its music search partners, at least in the United States - for starters.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/7Qe3vUeDIbw/
