Universal Music Group has announced its deal with Qtrax for free music downloads. See these reports from the Associated Press and Engadget. UMG is the first of the major recording labels to reach such an accord.

Back on 27 January 2008, I published a billso.com story about the Qtrax free music download service. Qtrax intends to earn advertising revenue from its P2P web site and software.

Of course, Qtrax hasn’t released any Mac software yet. There’s a beta version available for Windows users. The Qtrax browser is based on Mozilla, and it sounds vaguely like Flock.

Sometimes it takes a few months to work out all the pesky details.
