    One of the things I could see google offer is the ability to search for songs by lyrics and additional meta data. I know a lot of times when I purchase music via itunes and I don't know the actual name of the song the first thing I do is search for "lyrics" followed by the phrase from the song.

    The nice thing will be that you'll be able to search iTunes directly from Google. For example, if I'm looking for Bob Dylan stuff, and I do a Google search, I could get links to Bob Dylan songs on iTunes. Its reasonable for Google search to diversify into multimedia.
