Steve Jobs buys the competition and then kills it.
Lala an incredibly popular music site is being laid to rest. Steve Jobs is shutting it down a mere four months after purchasing the streaming music service.
Many blogs, like mine, used this service as a legal way to post music. One could listen to every song on Lala once for free. (Unless you uploaded your collection and then the music was available 24/7.) This is going to force the hand of a lot of bloggers that promote music to illegally post music. "Force" is obviously too harsh of a word, but I'm sure a lot of bloggers aren't going to just quit what they are doing just because of this change. It's the nature of the beast.
