Starbucks To Sell Music Downloads

by Guy Brighton

When we visited the Santa Monica Hear Music store by Starbucks last April, our chief complaint was that the store couldn’t buy downloads for your iPod there. Now Newswire reports about a statement Ken Lombard, president
of Starbucks Entertainment, made at the Midem music industry conference in
Cannes.

"A lot of our customers are asking for device
fill-up, and going forward we’ll do that."

The chain hasn’t yet set a date for moving into music player downloads
and is still talking to various companies about the technology, Lombard
said
