This is how it works. You do a Google search for an artists or album or a song, Google will display the song with a preview play button and clicking the link will show you the preview of the song from one of the partner with an option to buy that song. Take a look at the video below for a tour.
You might have read the news that Warner Bros. moved to Blu-ray and dropped support for HD DVD, couple of days back. It’s now being rumored (1, 2) that Paramount might do the same. This will bring the format war close to death and it would be a big blow to Microsoft and Toshiba and to me too since I bought a HD DVD player recently.
Though it’s sad, it’s a relief for general public since they don’t have to scratch their head on what to buy. Blu-ray is also slightly superior to HD DVD technology and storage wise. Blu-ray utilizes a lens with a greater numerical aperture than HD-DVD, the laser spot can be focused with greater precision to fit more data on the same size disc. Blu-ray was designed from ground up for HD. HD-DVDs carry the same basic structure as current DVDs. Blu-ray can store upto 25GB on a single sided disc whereas HD DVD stores only 15GB. I hope Sony drops the price of Blu-ray players below $200.
