We are acting as special counsel to Loudeye Corp., the registrant (the "Registrant"), under the above-referenced Registration Statement (the "Registration Statement"). On October 16, 2006, a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement was inadvertently filed on EDGAR as a pre-effective amendment. The Registrant hereby withdraws such inadvertent filing of the pre-effective amendment.
