According to a new report Apple will double the length of free song samples this week, from 30 seconds to 60 seconds. Greg Sandoval of CNet reported Monday said that Steve Jobs most likely will announce at the Media Event “tomorrow 1 September” that iTunes users will be able to sample 60 seconds of a song before purchasing it. He also wrote “For those who are hoping Apple will finally launch the cloud music service that CNET and others have written so much about in recent months, you’re likely going to have to keep waiting.”

The reason for this: the Cupertino, Calif., company reportedly does not have the necessary contracts in place.

If this is real or not we will find out tomorrow at the Media Event tomorrow at 10 a.m. Pacific, 1 p.m. Eastern in the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.
