Here's something that might shock and dismay you all, unless of course you were paying attention. SpiralFrog, the service that was going to offer people free music downloads that were ad-supported, has run into some trouble. Its CEO was ousted last month, which is when it was supposed to have launched, and is now sending an attorney around to industry conferences and such. It has also failed to get buy in from two big music labels, Warner Music Group and Sony BMG.

Despite all that, the company still says it will eventually launch with music from EMI and Universal. It's just not sure when that's going to be. Rights and compensation issues are still being ironed out and it's unclear whether or not there's even a market for ad-supported music.
