Australian Music Online is a website that indexes information related to Australian music. Launched in March 2003 as an Australian Federal Government initiative, and originally proposed in 1998, the website was actively updated until 31 April 2007, at which point its role transferred to that of an archive. It has been noted that there are plans to restructure the website.[1][2]

Australian Music Online has an Alexa traffic rating of 430,350, with a rank of 19,854 for Australian internet users.[3]

On 10 March 2005, MusicAustralia, a National Library of Australia project, was announced, rendering much of Australian Music Online redundant.[4]
