Sony BMG and Universal Music Group have been talking about launching an online music service to rival iTunes. And now, the U.S. Department of Justice wants to know exactly what they're up to.
The idea behind "Total Music" involves offering fans access to unlimited digital music for a period of time. The cost would be built into the price of the electronic device playing the downloads. Reports say both Sony and Universal received letters from the Department of Justice. Past deals between major recording companies have been closely watched by the government.
