lala.com is offering all of your owned music online, anywhere, for free. The service is currently in beta so I gave it a spin and it seems to work adequately. The process requires you to download a program that scans your music — be it in iTunes or just a music directory — and sends this info to the service. Since you have the songs on your hard drive it assumes you own them and gives you access to the same songs on their servers. If they don’t have the song on their server then the program uploads your copy. The service seemed to have 92% of my music collection. As I don’t have the bandwidth I didn’t let the program upload the missing tracks. All in all it is an interesting service that gives you access to your music anywhere you have an internet connection. They also say you can load the music to your iPod from the net, but I did not try this. [via gizmodo]
