The Chinese music market has less of a legal side to it, while its piracy phenomenon is far more widespread than in North America and Europe. Google’s latest experiment could prove to be a lucrative deal, if the company will be able to reach an agreement with the major music labels. At the same time, Google will have to face Baidu, the number 1 Chinese search engine, currently dominating the market in the country. “We were late entering the China market, and we’re catching up,” Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt said last April, as the WSJ reported. “Our investment is working and we will eventually be the leader.” Baidu.com has been struggling with numerous searches for unauthorized music downloads, which has raised concerns from the music companies trying to protect their interests. Google is currently working on making quite an entrance on the Chinese online music market, with offering a free download music service. |
