Facebook Music

I have yet to read anything about the upcoming Facebook Music features. I think I'm going to wait until they activate everything and form my own opinion before I try to read someone else's take on the situation. However, there are two certainties:

1. Changes to Facebook are generally negatively received.

2. This change promises to add a new dimension to the web giant.


Will Facebook Music have any effect on regular users or advertising? Regardless of what the changes bring, I am interested to see Google's response with Google Music, which is still in beta. I plan on giving Facebook a fair shake, but I am not optimistic (especially since the latest changes have not been to my liking).

But who knows? Technology has a way of pleasantly surprising me.

CNET: Google begins testing Google Music internally

It's definitely an interesting development, but what could this mean to the music industry? Will Google be friend or foe to the major labels? What does it mean to independent musicians? I personally can't wait for more information to be released.
