Go, with a range of Nokia 5310 XpressMusic handsets
this autumn. This unique service is set to revolutionise the music
industry, allowing music lovers nationwide a year’s free
unlimited access to millions of tracks from the entire Nokia
Music Store catalogue. Songs from a range of great artists
- past, present and future - will be offered to subscribers for
a one-off cost and to make the service even more attractive, the
downloaded tracks can be kept on the users handset or PC forever
- for no additional fee.
The
Nokia

Carphone Warehouse stores and online. Furthermore, the
handset will also be available with eight colour variants, exclusively
at The

International and Sony BMG Entertainment will give consumers
instant access to a diverse array of international artists’
material, from Iron Maiden to Hot Chip. This
exceptional offering enables users to access over two million
tracks from the extensive Nokia Music Store catalogue. Songs can
be simply downloaded to either a PC or mobile
phone, meaning music lovers nationwide will never be stuck
without something new to listen to.
Once
the year is complete, customers can keep all of their music, without
having to worry about it disappearing when their subscription
is over. There are also a number of attractive options to continue
downloading new music: users will be able to continue to purchase
additional tracks from the Nokia Music Store
or upgrade to a new Nokia Comes With Music device and continue
to add to their music collection from the Comes with Music online
catalogue.
Andrew
Harrison, UK CEO of The Carphone Warehouse said:
“Nokia
Comes with Music is one of the most compelling digital music
offerings ever introduced and we expect it to be the big gift
for Christmas 2008. It is a fantastic service that brings music
lovers unlimited access to a huge catalogue of songs that are
theirs to keep forever. We know how much our customers love music
and we hope to make ‘music millionaires’ of people
everywhere thanks to the vast number of songs that ‘Comes
With Music’ has to offer.”
