News today of yet more competition in the increasingly contestable market for music and film downloads. Tesco Digital is launching a new platform-neutral service which eventually will offer 3.3m music tracks compatible with iPods and other MP3 players. At the moment, the downloable tracks are only available in windows media player format. The move heralds yet more pressure for high street retailers such as HMV who are also building an online presence. Do you think that Tesco’s move will be a success?
