Research In Motion on Thursday announced its new BBM Music service, a cloud music offering for BlackBerry Messenger. BBM Music enables social and viral music discovery by allowing users to build a community-based library with friends' selections. A closed beta of BBM Music has launched in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. The service is expected to be available later this year in multiple countries for a monthly charge of $4.99. In using the new BBM Music service, the size of a user's music library will continue to grow as more friends and their playlists are added.
