We interrupt your late day latte to bring you the news that Starbucks and A le have brewed a deal that brings the soothing sounds of the Starbucks Hear Music catalog direct to your desktop and/or iPod via iTunes. They're serious too... there's an entire Starbucks Entertainment area within the iTunes Store now. Starbucks knows prime real estate when they see it! I just checked it out [iTS link] and it's off to a good start. You'll find most of the collectio and releases that you'd typically find in CD form next to the cash register at Starbucks, along with a handful of suggested playlists, including several "Artist's Choice" collectio (Mick Jagger digs Sade.. who knew?). There will also be exclusive content that even XM Radio su cribers like me probably won't get on the Hear Music cha el.
Any time there's a convergence of two of my favorite things from two of my favorite companies, I wish it well.
