Microsoft has announced that its MSN Music service will be discontinued. The announcement comes a few days before the official US launch of Microsoft's Zune player and its associated Zune Marketplace.

"Beginning November 14th, 2006, MSN Music will no longer offer music downloads through the MSN Music store... On November 14th, Microsoft will launch Zune, our exciting new digital media player. MSN will partner with the Zune team to make it simple for MSN Music users to find and download music from the new Zune Marketplace. The Zune Marketplace will enable you to purchase tracks individually or to buy a Zune Pass subscription to download as many songs as you want for a flat fee."
