Cingular Launching New Music Service - Not with Apple
posted in Strategy, Hardware, iPods |I just saw a quick bit on CNBC where Joe Kiernan reported that Cingular is launching a new music service with Napster, eMusic and other “leading digital music companies.” Notably absent was Apple. This appears consistent with earlier reports that Cingular would stop bundling iTunes with it Rokr and other phones. But it seems to contradict rumors reported by ThinkSecret that Cingular would have a 6-month exclusive on the iPhone.
