Vivendi Universal that owns 50% of Pressplay is confident that the service will launch "within first two weeks of September". Pressplay is a 50/50 joint digital music venture between Sony and Vivendi Universal and it recently selected MP3.com to provide the technology to power it (Vivendi is buying MP3.com, so the choice was obvious).
Service should start with 75,000 tracks that subscribers can stream. Later service should also allow music downloads.
