Ubuntu Music Store (coming soon!)

By Jack Wallen

Ubuntu Lucid Lynx you may have noticed something special that was
announced some time ago is actually coming to fruition. Announced

capabilities of the Linux desktop further than it has ever
been.

“Similar to Apples iTunes music store, the Ubuntu Music store
will allow the user to purchase music right from their desktop

application? As of this writing it is Rhythmbox. This was no small
feat as an entire web browser engine has to be engineered into
Rhythmbox. But from the latest releases, it is happening.”
