Could Led Zeppelin be launching their own streaming platform?
A trademark application filed in the US has stirred speculation that heavy metal pioneers Led Zeppelin could be planning to launch their own streaming service.
According to the fansite LedZepNews, the band's application attempts to trademark the name 'The Led Zeppelin Experience' for a service that will offer “non-downloadable prerecorded music online via a global computer network.”
Because of the vague nature of the wordings (it sounds like it was written during the early days of the internet!), it's hard to gauge exactly what Led Zep has planned. But the timing of the affair couldn't be apter. It follows a cryptic tease from the band’s guitarist Jimmy Page last year that 2018 -- the year marks the band’s 50th anniversary -- would see the release of a “Led Zeppelin product” as well as “all manner of surprises,” hinting that there were plenty of surprises in store for the band’s fans. This could very well be one of them.
