Dotmusic was an internet music site that existed as a stand alone website from June 1995 to December 2003. Initially intended as the web compliment to the UK music industry trade magazine Music Week, the site was relaunched in December 1998 as a website for music fans.

Dotmusic was originally owned by Miller Freeman, before being sold to BT in 2002. In 2003 the site was sold to Yahoo! and subsequently incorporated into Yahoo!'s UK based music portal, UK Launch. Whilst some features remain, namely the music news pages (and news archive) plus the weekly chart commentary by James Masterton, the most popular feature of Dotmusic. In 2004 it was announced that the main Dotmusic site had shut down for good and was no more.
