Apple into free music streaming? Judge for yourself...

The UK based, well respected music magazine MusicWeek reported the following some weeks back:

"Apple to offer acts free streaming
Computer giant Apple has teamed up with online sales company See
Tickets and marketing firm Creative Tank to offer free web streaming
for bands"

Apple later commented that there is no such partner ship:

Apple has denied a recent Music Week story that claimed the company has entered a partnership to facilitate live-event streaming over the Internet to bands, reports Macworld UK.

Music Week (a subscriber only site) reported that Apple had teamed-up with See Tickets and a UK marketing firm called Creative Tank to offer the service. The story said acts would be able to make live shows available to their fans on a pay-per-view basis.

However, an Apple rep told Macworld UK that "there is no partnership."
