The recently announced alliance will focus on Microsoft&rsquo;s popular music device Zune as the two companies work to create a comprehensive music and entertainment agenda that will focus on urban culture and its effects on relevant lifestyle contributors, influencers, and tastemakers. The partnership is a big step for Digiwaxx, according to the company&rsquo;s CEO Corey &ldquo;CL&rdquo; Llewellyn. &ldquo;We are excited about the opportunity to partner with such a major technology player as Microsoft...it speaks to the growing importance of urban culture and its influence, globally and within corporate America.&rdquo; Created in 1998 by Llewellyn and Drew Edgar, Digiwaxx Media has become a leader in technological advances in music distribution and promotion, by marketing new music and artists to more than 17,000 member DJs and music influencers around the world.&quot;</em><br /><br />I'm posting this because although I've never heard of Digiwaxx Media before, but I figure there may be some DJ-types that read this site and will know more about what this announcement means than I do.

I'm just guessing, but I think Microsoft will create branded content in MarketPlace tailored for various target groups. At least I hope so because I don't want the whole Zune experience to a single genre because thats whats popular.
