So it appears.

"The service, which was due to launch before Christmas, has apparently been delayed as labels fail to agree on providing unlimited access to music downloads, despite a deal with Universal being agreed six months ago.

A source at EMI tells New Media Age that the label hopes to finalise a tie up this year but the uncapped feature would not be part of the deal. Unless all four majors and Merlin agree to offer the unlimited service, a cap on the number of downloads could be introduced."
