Microsoft is working on an update to its MSN 8 Internet software subscription product that will have several new features and, for the first time, be sold worldwide, company executives said.
The product, which Microsoft internally refers to as MSN Premium or MSN 9, is planned to be released before the end of the year, and will be aimed at broadband Internet users, Yusuf Mehdi, the head of Microsoft’s MSN Personal Services & Business division said on Thursday.
The company is also considering launching an online music service to rival Apple’s iTunes, Mehdi said. Such a service would likely replace Microsoft’s current service it offers in partnership with Pressplay.
Bill Gates says he doesn't see room for profit in a music service, but apparently MusicMatch does. They will offer a music service free of subscription, like iTunes and BuyMusic, but are strangely currently missing support from Sony and Warner Bros.

MSN 9 will be avalble for all users, not just BroadBand. It is a big improvement from MSN 8.5. It has alot of extra features. One is you can have a INBOX storage of 100 MB and thats not all...there is more.
But you will have to get it to find out. LOL
