Yahoo plans to open its online music site to offer information about songs and artists non-Yahoo services including, the company confirmed last night.
“We're going to completely open up Yahoo Music in the next few weeks,” said Scott Moore, the executive in charge of Yahoo’s media businesses.
The move's part of an overarching strategy on the part of the company to offer content from across the web, rather than simply from Yahoo's own sites. The portal already attracts over 500 million users each month.
The company is working to allow partners to deliver content on the main page of Yahoo News, reports Reuters.
In July, Yahoo promised to reimburse customers who bought music from Yahoo Music that can no longer be easily played as a result of the company shutting down its online music store.
