New AIM software lets users share tunes

Associated Press: New AIM software lets users share tunes.

Now you can listen to the music your friends enjoy while chatting away online.

The new version of AOL's instant-messaging software, AIM 6.5, offers a plug-in that lets users listen to songs their buddies have on their playlists. AIM Tunes does not require a separate media player. Copy-protected songs such as those bought on Apple Inc.'s iTunes won't play, however. ...

The free software, from Time Warner Inc.'s AOL, works with Windows-based computers only.
