NewsWireless Sansa Connect player, which sells for $250, will be paired with Yahoo's music service.In another pairing of two companies chasing Apple in the digital music space, SanDisk and Yahoo said today that they are pairing SanDisk's wireless Sansa Connect music player with Yahoo's music and media services. The deal will allow people who buy the $250 Sansa Connect player to subscribe to Yahoo Music Unlimited To Go, an $11.99-per-month music rental service via which users can listen to or download tracks and also listen to music from nearby Sansa Connect users via a Wi-Fi network. The pairing also allows people to use a Wi-Fi Internet connection to listen to Yahoo's LAUNCHcast Internet radio and browse Flickr photos, since LAUNCHcast and Flickr are both part of the Yahoo network. When the 4-gigabyte Sansa Connect is not connected to a Wi-Fi network, the player behaves like a traditional Flash music player and can be connected to a personal computer. Users can play music and view photos stored either on the player or on an optional microSD card. The move is yet another attempt to combat Apple's domination of the digital music space. Apple's iPods accounted for nearly 74 percent of the total MP3 player market share, as of February, according to NPD Group. SanDisk is a distant second at 9 percent. "I don't think this is going to make a serious dent in Apple's market share anytime soon," Jupier Research analyst David Card told MarketWatch today. "But it's a good sign that there is innovation going on in the space, and clearly that's what needs to happen before anybody can compete with Apple." The new player, unveiled by SanDisk at CES in January, supports both subscription services and digital downloads, meaning that it has the technology to support playback and storage of songs that are rented for a monthly fee in Microsoft's PlaysForSure format, as well as those purchased outright. Paul McCartney plays to a star-studded crowd in LA Paul McCartney played a free and intimate show at Amoeba Records in Los Angeles last night (June 27). Several of the approximately 500 fans in attendance camped out overnight to obtain the coveted wristbands that would grant them entry into the unique event, which had only been announced two days prior. Some fans travelled from as far as Japan to catch a glimpse of their hero. Looking casual in a red sweater, McCartney ran through several tracks off his recent chart-topping album, 'Memory Almost Full', as well as several Beatles classics including 'Let It Be', 'Hey Jude', and some songs from the Wings era. During The Beatles numbers, several audience members got choked up, obviously moved by the experience. McCartney himself got emotional during 'Here Today'. "This is a song for people we miss tonight...it's a song I wrote about John Lennon," he said by way of introduction. Afterwards, he pointed to a teary-eyed woman and was obviously moved himself. He said, "We're grownups and we can cry if we want to." McCartney brought the mood back up by launching into 'Back In The USSR' with his tight three-man backing band. He often played to the crowd, engaging in silly banter with the audience and spontaneously performing the sugary 'Baby Face'. All the while, audience members wondered aloud if fellow Beatle Ringo Starr, who had been spotted making his way through the crowd before McCartney's set, would join his former bandmate on stage. McCartney announced his name during the encore, and it appeared he might ask him to join in on the final songs. But Starr failed to materialise, and McCartney said, "Ringo has left the building," to the great disappointment of the audience. Among the audience members were Alanis Morissette, Rosanna Arquette, Woody Harrelson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, producer Rick Rubin, and Olivia Harrison, the widow of former Beatle George Harrison. McCartney's 90-minute set was almost identical to the ones he played at New York's Highline Ballroom and London's Electric Ballroom earlier this month. |
