Music download startup SpiralFrog appears to be aborting before it even launches.
Despite my flip title, I don't think SpiralFrog is really an iTunes victim as much as it is the victim of a really, really tough market that's in bad shape right now. It's also tainted with a "me, too!" flavor. Previous variations of the ad-supported download model floundered and flailed as well and nothing tastes worse to consumers than failure.
Supposedly they've hired a new CEO and maybe things will turn around for the little musical amphibian but the pond is quickly drying up for music retailers and soon everyone will be forced to evolve.
