Facebook Working on Music Service ''Vibes?''

A programmer snooping around in the Facebook Video Chat code discovered an unannounced Facebook music service.

Programmer Jeff Rose reportedly went digging around in Facebook's new video chatting app after its launch on Thursday. Specifically, he wanted to know how the new app worked in conjunction with his own Skype installation: did the FacebookvideoCalling.jar file used his pre-installed Skype, did it install a second copy, or was Facebook bundling the Skype protocols in a library? After discovering how the installer worked, he also came across a piece of code that references to a music download app called "Facebook Vibes."
