Silicon Alley Insider [says](http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/9/myspace-music-launch-delayed-?ref=hypebot.com) the MySpace Music **launch could be delayed until next week** and my sources also sound a lot vaguer than the once did about this week.
- cNet [says](http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023%5F3-10042137-93.html?ref=hypebot.com) **EMI** – the lone major label holdout – is close to making a deal.
- I got an email from a reader that I had implied that existing Amazon contracts were all indies needed to be included on MySapce Music. To clarify, that contract is for download sales only. To get a **share of revenue from streaming** – a feature central to the new site – **indies will need new contracts directly with MySpace.** This same source claims that Merlin is in deep dicsussions with MySapce now and I know of several other distributors that say the same.
- Talking with the NY Times the CEO of **The Orchard** [sounded](http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/16/technology/16myspace.html?%5Fr=1&ref=technology&oref=slogin) as if their MySpace deal was already done.
