Facebook is finally jumping into the music game, reports CNBC. "I'm hearing from someone familiar with the plans that Facebook plans to launch its long rumored music service at the F8 conference on September 22nd." As iTunes gears up to launch iTunes Match, which looks pretty good, and Spotify creeps its way into American ear buds, Facebook plans to approach the market from a different angle. "Now, it seems likely that Facebook won't actually host the music, but will partner with others who do that."

Given that Zuck is pretty keen on Spotify, maybe he will extend his love affair to Facebook's pages?
