Nokia’s mobile music services, Comes With Music, which will be launching in UK next month, and in continental Europe and Asia next year.
Nokia is joining hands with mobile retailer Carphone Warehouse, which has more than 800 shops and is Apple’s sole independent distributor of the iPhone in UK, to stock the phone.
Nokia’s purpose is to compete with Apple iPhone and iTunes music service.
Carphone will start selling Apple’s 3G iPhone on pay-as-you-go deals from later this month.
Buyers of the Nokia handset will be getting unlimited music downloads for a year—2.1 million on launch, about quarter on iTunes—and will then have to pay a monthly subscription fee to retain the service.
Unlike other unlimited music services, if users choose not to buy a new device after a year, they can store and keep all the tracks already downloaded, and will also still be able to send texts and make calls.
