REUTERS - Dell Inc has decided not to launch its ambitious digital music player tied to online entertainment software before the holidays, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing a person familiar with the matter.
Dell could not be immediately reached for comment by Reuters.
Earlier this year, Dell was testing prototypes of a mini MP3 player based on an entertainment software called Zing, for an expected fall release, the WSJ said citing people familiar with the matter.
Dell's foray would have put it into an Apple-led market that has defied assaults.
The WSJ cited a source as saying Dell had finally decided to hold off on the music player indefinitely but to proceed with the Zing software.
Zing software organizes downloaded music and movies on PCs.
Dell's first foray into the music market in 2003 was a huge disappointment. It withdrew from the music-player market after its DJ Ditty player failed to make major inroads.
