  - The second type of deal is with websites - who get to stream music for free with advertising. The revenue from those ads, plus a lot of user data, is owned by Total Music
  - That’s the deal that Total Music approached Facebook with
  - Some sources say it was because Facebook didn’t want to hand over all the revenue and user data
  - Warner Music refused to allow their music to be accessed for free
  - Warner, a big shareholder in LaLa
  - LaLa’s model requires users to pay to stream music, a non-starter for Facebook

- Facebook’s ongoing effort to launch a free streaming music service is stalled, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation. The company was close to a deal that would bring free streaming music from three of the four big labels (Universal, Sony, EMI) through the Total Music joint venture. But the deal stalled when the lone holdout, Warner Music, refused to participate.
