Nokia announces Nokia Music+ Premium Music Streaming Service
After lunching a ad-free music service Nokia Music in September for Lumia Smartphone user, Nokia announced on Sunday it is expanding its free music streaming service with an enhanced paid version of its existing Nokia Music platform.
The new Music Service called Nokia Music+, and available at $3.99 monthly subscription fee depending on location.
The service allows you to download up to four Mixes (each of which contains hours of music) and play them without an Internet connection. The Nokia Music+ subscription also gives you access to the service without your phone. A web-app gives you the ability to play Mixes on your computer, smart TV or other connected screens. The app is also available for download from the Windows Phone Marketplace.
“People love Nokia Mix Radio – in fact, many people are amazed that we can offer it for free, Jyrki Rosenberg, VP Entertainment at Nokia, said in a Company’s blog.
“It’s the only smartphone music service out there offering access to millions of songs out of the box without the need to sign up, sign in, or suffer adverts in between enjoying the music. When you add in the ability to skip songs and save playlists for offline uses like the tube, you have something unique.
The company said Nokia Music+ will roll out in the next few weeks.
