A British start-up has launched a music streaming service dubbed the Electric Jukebox that, for an annual fee, plugs into the back of a television for music fans who do not want to fiddle with app-based monthly subscription services. Ever since illegal downloads destroyed the traditional model of selling music via CDs, the music industry has been trying to find new ways to sell songs, either via streaming services such as Spotify, single sale downloads via the likes of Apple , or ad-funded video sites like YouTube The services have also been included as part of mobile phone contracts in a bid to promote take-up. “We want to bring music back into people’s living rooms,” said Rob Lewis, CEO of Electric Jukebox Company.
