The BBC delivers quite a bit of music as a service... bit different to what the author meant though I'm sure.
When does radio become a "music distribution service"? People like last.fm are riding a fine line here right?

Thanks to EMI and Apple, that choice is a lot clearer today." But subscription based music distribution services appear not to be as popular as download based ones. Also, I think its worth comparing subscription services to license-fee services, like Sky vs BBC.. ;-) -- Regards, Dave - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
