“I’ve written about Melodeo’s products a couple of times, most recently in January, when I got a demo of a forthcoming update to Melodeo’s Nutsie app for Android phones. Nutsie (the name is an anagram of iTunes) runs on several mobile platforms, and gives users a way to get music from the iTunes library on their computer to a mobile device over the air… Basically, Melodeo was building an online music locker, like what MP3Tunes offers,” Rosoff reports. “It sounded like a great solution for Android’s weak spot in music, and I even speculated that Google might acquire Melodeo. But the updated Nutsie app hasn’t come out yet, and when I contacted a spokesman about two weeks ago, he told me that Melodeo had some big news coming up that was delaying its product plans. This was it.”
