NEW YORK: Major US music retailers have launched a service to deliver music via the Internet, a step they hope will save them from piracy that has raged on even after the demise of the Napster online song-swapping service.  

The partnership, which comes as the music industry also battles growing pressure from discounters like Wal-Mart Stores Inc, consists of Best Buy Co, Hastings Entertainment Inc, Tower Records, Trans World Entertainment Corp, Virgin Entertainment Group and Wherehouse Entertainment Inc.
