New eMusic Site is Live, Plus New Payment Structure and Universal Catalogue

eMusic has just launched their new website, which includes 250,000 tracks from Universal.

CEO Adam Klein is hoping the new site will help the company rebound from a bit of bad news from earlier this week, when several indie labels—Merge Records, Domino Records, and Beggars Group—decided they would no longer do business with eMusic. “A handful of labels have left us, and we trust they’ll be back at some stage,” said Klein. “We hope so, because we miss them.”

The new service, which previously charged for plans beginning at $11.99 for 24 tracks per month, will now simply charge users money for each track. Track prices will range from $.49 to $.89 each, depending on the newness and popularity of the songs.
