EA launches digital music distribution label

"Nettwerk Music Group?"

What the hell is Nettwerk?

Nettwerk is a record label, they released a number of Tiesto's CDs in the US, actually...

Oh yay! Now I can download crappy soundtracks to games like Burnout and Madden. Because listening to the same 5 crappy songs 20 times per gaming session is not enough!

Seriously though, I see absolutly no market for this kind of move. I would think that EA would do a digital distribution system for their games (like Steam) rather than for the music in said games.

Unless this is a test to see how well an EA Games digital distribution method would work.
