Facebook Reportedly Putting 'Finishing Touches' on Music Platform

Could launch this month

Facebook is making good on its rumored plans to launch a music service. Sources within the social network, which was first reported to be in talks with Spotify last May, told CNET that the company is putting the “finishing touches” on the new music feature.

“They are working on a platform for music where the goal is to create a connective tissue for fans,” said one source. While Facebook has so far refused to comment on the feature, several blogs reported in July that a software engineer had discovered code for a Facebook music downloading product called “Vibes.”
