IMO, the wireless phone carriers are the ones preventing the phone makers from including any music features. They want people to pay 99 cents any time they listen to a song, much like the way they get them to pay for a screen saver or ringtone.

I love the bells and whistles like the wallpaper. No way I am going to pay them for a download that only lasts 30 days. Someone is going to break away from the pack and make some big changes - more than likely it will be the gsm companies like Cingular. They are much better at marketing than the cdma players like verizon.

It will be interesting to see what sprint can do with their ev do platform this summer. Verizon has wasted the better part of 2 years without making ev do recognizable on any level.
