Google launched Bollywood music search

Google has launched a online music service (http://www.google.co.in/music) in India that enables users to search for legal music streams and downloads.

Google has partnered with In.com, Saregama and Saavn. These digital music providers, hold rights to hundreds of thousands of Indian tracks - ranging from old and new Bollywood hits to Indian classical music. Users can search for a particular song, an album or even for artists. The songs played on a pop-up window linking to the service provider site.  The music search service currently is officially limited to only Hindi songs. However search gave results to other language songs also.

The service is similar to the one launched by Guruji.com few years back.

The Google India music search is still a part of Google Labs, where Google experiments and demonstrates new products before integrating them as a standard feature on its services.
