"Dell is hoping the service will be attractive to customers considering both its forthcoming Dell Digital Jukebox music player hardware and its PCs. The new service will allow customers to download music to the jukebox or one of its PCs and will be able to analyze a customer's song-playing history to recommend new selections, he said."
