Mobile music to be beat online by 2010

Analysts are predicting that consumption of music over mobiles is soon to outstrip that of desktop-bound services which dominate today. Silicon.com reports.

"According to research from IDC, the US alone will see 50 million users generating more than $1bn by 2010, by which time 60 per cent of all handsets in the country will have music playing functionality.

Interestingly, the analysts predict the main user group won't be the traditionally tech-hungry youth but rather 25- to 44-year-olds who may be new to digital music."
