Lots happened in 2009, but it wasn’t a vintage year for digital music (in fact, it was the year digital music lost the digital buzz to e-readers). All in all I’d give 2009 a 6 out of 10, with the launch of Spotify accounting for at least couple of those points. Here are five of biggest disappointments of the year:
1. Comes With Music underwhelmed (as did Play Now plus)
2. ISP services didn’t get off the ground (including unlimited MP3’s nearly-but-not-quite moment)
3. Apple’s new killer music format was….oh, iTunes albums
4. imeem gave a master class in how not to make money from social music
5. The big boys (MySpace, Apple) snapped up the innovative competition (Lala, iLike, imeem)
