mmO2 to launch music downloads on to mobile phones

UK operator MM02 is reported to have entered into a deal with five of the music industry's big labels including Universal and EMI to sell chart music downloads on to mobile phones.

Under the deal, mmO2 will next month launch a service enabling its mobile phone users to initially access about 5,000 tracks.

The operator will charge fixed-line Internet users US$0.99 to download a track, although mmO2 is expected to charge upwards of £1.50 (US$2.50) a song. [Telecoms.com]
