Two separate reports from TechCrunch and The Street say that the search giant is developing a music service, dubbed as Google Audio, and a smartphone that will not be sold through traditional wireless carriers.

Michael Arrington of TechCrunch quotes multiple sources, saying that Google has “spent the last several weeks securing content for the launch of the [music] service from the major music labels.”

This new service will be available for U.S. users, although it isn’t clear if it’s a download or streaming service, or both. Stay tuned for more on this!
