Pressplay On Its Way To ‘Big Five’ Distribution

Pressplay adds BMG songs
As reprinted in the 10/15/02 San Francisco Chronicle from the NY Times
Pressplay, an online music service that offers consumers the ability to listen to and download more than 100,000 songs for a monthly fee, said Monday that it had added tens of thousands of tracks distributed by BMG to its catalog. The Pressplay service already includes songs from the two major labels that own it, Sony Music Entertainment and Universal Music Group, as well as EMI. Pressplay is expected to announce a deal with Warner Music Group shortly, a move that would make it the only service to offer the ability to download music from all five major labels.
