Google – Better music information in search results

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

googleGoogle introduced a new feature to help you better find music information using Google search.

Now, when you enter a music-related query — like the name of a song, artist, album or a line or two of  lyrics — into the Google search box, your search results will include links to an audio preview of those songs provided by our music search partners MySpace (which just acquired iLike) or Lala.

This feature not only makes search better, it also introduces millions of music seekers to new sources of licensed music online.
