SanDisk Releases “slotMusic” Cards, Shows Incompetency

by John Jorgensen on September 22, 2008

  • SanDisk has just announced slotMusic, microSD cards that are pre-loaded with mp3s from major label artists and sold at Best Buy and Wal-Mart.
  • Participating labels include EMI Music, SONY BMG, Universal Music Group, and Warner Music Group.
  • Tracks will be DRM-free.
  • Tiny commentary: When will the majors learn that people want music on their terms? Fans want to be able to pick and choose what they want, then download or stream it instantly — they don’t want to be force-fed a collection of tracks on a physical card that they could download at home in 2 seconds.
