Legal music sites break 100 mark
By Darren Waters |
The number of legal online music services world-wide has broken through the 100 barrier.
The global music industry made the announcement as it celebrated the first anniversary of its downloading education website, pro-music.org.
The website features a directory of all the legal services and explains the industry’s legal standpoint on downloading music.
Music industry boss Jay Berman said: “This is a symbolic mark.”
The industry has been criticised for being slow to react to the demand for online music but Mr Berman said that had changed.
‘Legitimate demand’
The chairman and chief executive of the International Federation for the Phonographic Industry told BBC News Online: “There are enough download services now to satisfy every legitimate demand for online music.”
