Warner Streams Entire Catalogue

warner-imeem.jpgVentureBeat reports that Warner Music is streaming its entire music and video catalogue on Imeem. In exchange for the content, Warner will get a cut of Imeem’s advertising revenue:

It is also remarkable because Warner (along with other labels) had sued imeem less than two months ago for copyright infringement.
