Microsoft Corp said on Friday, June 10, 2005, they are interested in offering an online music subscription service. However, at the moment, Micorsoft has nothing much to share yet.

Quoted:
“We are actively investigating the subscription model, but we don’t have anything to share today,” Christine Andrews, lead product manager of Microsoft’s MSN Internet division said, “Once we are ready to talk more, we’ll let you know.”


Microsoft is betting users will want to use subscription services to transfer songs to their digital music players. Currently, only songs ripped from CDs or purchased for download can be loaded onto digital music players like Apple’s popular iPod player. Microsoft has been trying to get service providers to adopt its anti-piracy software technology that will allow users to transfer songs from a music subscription service onto portable music players without being able to pirate them.
