Reuters has details of a new “one box” feature for music. Simply search for the name of your favorite artist and you’ll find a suggested album, artwork and description. Plus…

A link to “more” music results leads to user reviews, song titles and a choice of online retailers where the music can be purchased.

So is Google getting any revenue-share from the new feature?

While the music search feature holds out the possibility of Google taking a cut of any music sale resulting from directing the user to an online music store, a spokeswoman said there was no plans to charge anyone for the service.
