That other big name of the early days of digital music - MP3.com - has relaunched under its new owners CNET. Originally a platform for unsigned artists to make their music available digitally - MP3.com was destined for big things when bought by Vivendi Universal in 2001, but Vivendi's financial woes meant little was achieved during its ownership, except the closure of its European operations. Now owned by CNET the plan seems to be to make MP3.com a guide to the various digital music websites out there.
