Nokia keeps expanding its online music stores around the world. This time, though, they’re going outside Europe, bringing its service to the Middle East, to United Arab Emirates.
As it’s the case with all other Nokia Music Stores opened elsewhere, the twelfth store globally is part of Nokia’s OVi offering, tightly integrated with Nokia NSeries handsets’ software. Again, main labels are on board (Universal, Sony BMG, Warner and EMI) and so are the Arab label Rotana and content aggregator Qanawat.
Feature wise, there’s a 30 second preview of all tracks and dynamic recommendations based on musical preferences. Additionally, there’s also a “Wishlist” for picking songs for later purchase as well as the “download history” feature that allows users to return to purchased content after some time.
Individual tracks cost 3 AED, while complete albums could be yours for 30 AED. The unlimited music PC streaming service is also an option which you could grab for 20 AED per month.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
