Following last years buy-out by CNet of music download provider MP3.com, the service is soon to be re-launched as music.download.com. The new website will offer music but also games and software, an indication of the CNet influence.
A minimal service will be used initially when the site goes live in March, but the music content is expected to return soon after. CNet is building the structure of the service from new as it didn't have the opportunity to buy the old technology.
New Product Manager of music.download.com, Aaron Newton, said in a letter to the I.T. Vibe website "I hope to bring you a music site that meets the high expectations we all had for MP3.com when it first started."
