Yahoo wants to be the
next big music venue. Through a partnership with Live Nation, the
concert ticketing company, Yahoo plans to stream a live concert every
day for an entire year, featuring what Yahoo marketing chief Kathy
Savitt describes as the "world's hottest bands and musicians." Yahoo
says that it'll also keep 1,200 of its live song recordings around after
the shows airs for "months and months" so that listeners can continue
to stream them.
"Together, we're going to feed
the daily habit of music fans everywhere," Savitt said. Yahoo and Live
Nation didn't announce when the concerts would start, where they would
be held, or who specifically we can expect to see — but Live Nation's
CEO says that the deal between his company and Yahoo was only finalized
on Thursday, so it sounds like some of those details may still be
getting nailed down.
