Facebook is going to start selling music at its online gift shop. The social networking site started, a few months ago, including such items as flowers and gift baskets, at the Facebook Gift Shop, which is primarily used for virtual products.
Users must purchase credits, which cost $0.10 each, from Facebook by using a credit card to buy Facebook gifts. The Music section of the Gift Shop is being powered by LaLa.com
The search giant may be prepping a digital music service may begin selling digital music, much like the iPod and iPhone maker. But some have claimed that Google is dealing with the music labels directly and will link to music sites for sales.
If reports are true, Google could be setting itself up to become a major player in the online music space.
So far, however, Google is remaining silent and keep us with expectations.
But Google knows right from the start what people are looking for.”
