Japanese Electronics Firms Unveil Home Stereos Than Can Download Music

Tokyo -- Four Japanese electronics firms -- Sony, Pioneer, Sharp and Kenwood -- on Tuesday introduced separate products developed as part of a joint venture to create home stereos that can download music without the need of a PC, the Associated Press reported. The joint venture, called Any Music Planning, developed the Linux-based software the devices share in common. The stereos, which will initially go on sale in Japan in 2004, will be able to download music over a broadband connection through LabelGate, an online service that has licenses from Japanese major labels and rights to limited Western music. "Ultimately, our dream is to make the service a worldwide standard," Any Music CEO Fujio Noguchi told AP.
