Although New York-based ClickRadio (http://www.clickradio.com) hasn’t launched yet, it's still making some pretty big deals and creating headlines. When the company first unveiled itself in February 2000, its goal was to launch an interactive music service that lets listeners customize the music they're listening to.

ClickRadio will accomplish this goal by offering a mix of streaming and caching. ClickRadio caches and plays music locally on a user's hard drive, and as people rate the music, the cache is updated with new music and deletes songs they hate. Users can also see lyrics, track info, artist bios, links to artist sites and other information for each song. Additionally, the caching implementation means that users can listen to music without being connected to the Internet. Music will be CD-quality and will avoid the "net congestion" problems of streaming.

ClickRadio's strategy is to license music from the big music labels. Earlier this year ClickRadio announced deals with Universal Music, BMG, and last week it made a deal with Warner. That leaves just Sony and EMI left to bargain with. Most likely, ClickRadio is waiting until it brokers deals with the last two labels before it officially launches. According to a spokesperson, ClickRadio will go live this Fall.
