Short Take: Riffage.com, GetMusic share artists

Music Web site Riffage.com and GetMusic, which is backed by BMG Entertainment and Universal Music Group, said they will feature new bands on the Net paired with the famous musicians who inspired them. Riffage users will be able to access music from well-known artists, and GetMusic users will have access to the aspiring artists on Riffage's site. GetMusic will offer streaming music playlists from new musicians on the Web pages of artists who inspired them.
