p2pnet.net News:- Yahoo Japan has opened a free online audio streaming service.

The idea is to get users plugged into to its music sites, says Bloomberg News, going on:

“Tokyo-based Yahoo aims to lure customers to buy CDs from the shopping portal or download music for a fee after they listen to the sample songs, the company said today in a faxed release.”

But, “Customers can’t save the music files onto their computers from the streaming service."

Apple recently launched iTunes in Japan.
