Apple and Microsoft both have plans for music downloads. They want you to pay for it though. iTunes already has sold 2 million songs.

After years of delays, the record industry is experimenting with services to combat the wide availability of free music brought on by the MP3 file format and file-swapping software such as Kazaa. Record labels and retailers have tried to lure paying customers by offering singles for sale as downloads for less than $1, and also for rent through monthly subscription services.
