Facebook Debuts New Music Section

Hoping to capitalize on the success of rival MySpace, where a reported 7 million musical acts have set up shop, online social network Facebook on Thursday introduced a new music section, that allows bands to create profiles and post their songs, photos and music videos. Some 80 artists have already set up profiles, including Alicia Keys, Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay, Justin Timberlake and the Decemberists. The section streams songs though a Facebook Music Player application, and provides links to purchase tracks at the iTunes Store. The company also tapped Musictoday to fulfill merchandise sales.
