Digital media newswatch, Webnoize, raported today that sources familiar with the situation are suggesting that Microsoft and Pressplay (formerly known as Duet, a joint digital music venture of Sony and Vivendi Universal) are closer to ink a deal that would put Microsoft to market Pressplay service through its channels.
Pressplay signed a similiar deal with Yahoo in April. Pressplay is competing with MusicNet service, backed by three other major record labels and RealNetworks.
