According to a CNBC report, Facebook is planning to launch its own music service at its f8 conference in San Francisco on September 22. The report cites a “source with knowledge” and states that the service will rely on third parties (such as Spotify and Pandora) to provide music to the social network’s 750 million+ users.
A Facebook music platform has been rumored for quite some time now, but nothing has come to fruition. Launching this sort of platform would also put Facebook in competition with other companies like Apple and Google.
