EMI hoping to join Nokia's new music offering

19 March 2008 17:19 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz

EMI hoping to join Nokia's new music offering EMI has announced that they were negotiating with the biggest mobile phone handset maker in the world, Nokia, in a concentrated effort to offer its music catalog as part Nokia's upcoming "Comes with Music" offering.

"We want to be part of it. I believe strongly that when it launches we will be there, with a full offering,"
Wemppa Koivumaki, head of EMI Finland, said in the announcement.

The handset maker will begin selling phones under its "Comes With Music" brand in the Q3 of 2008 and the service will give users unlimited access to millions of tracks from labels worldwide.

Last December, Universal signed up for the program, being the first of the Big 4 record labels to do so.
