SE to Offer Free Music Downloads!!!
Sony Ericsson, over the past few months have been quite hush hush about their workings.A surprize that came up quite recently is their endeavour to offer free and unlimited music downloads to its users. The move may raise a few eyebrows because Nokia, the marketleader in this segment, offered their consumers the same a few days back. Is it a copy, or a real deal is something which we shall realize in a few days.
Here’s what CNET has to say about this:
The sources said Omnifone’s MusicStation is expected to power the service, which may include a music-subscription model. A representative from Omnifone was not immediately available. And a spokesman for Sony Ericsson said the company had nothing to announce at this time and does not comment on rumors.
“This is the new frontier for a lot of these phone companies,” said Mike McGuire, a digital music analyst. “Clearly Sony Ericsson can’t be ignored. There should be some interesting potential in terms of linkage to other parts of Sony. Maybe you see it tied to the PlayStation or Sony Pictures. It’s a pretty interesting ecosystem…but again, these things always look good on paper.”
