Singapore’s SingTel has recently lunched a free mobile music download service for its contract customers with selected phones. The service called SingTel AMPed has been developed in partnership with Universal Music Group (UMG) and allows customers to download songs, music videos, as well as pre-release albums. Best of all, SingTel won’t charge data charges for using the service!
Moreover, there’s an interactive portion of the service that allows customers to comment on songs, and chat with other music lovers. In addition, users can also link their news to popular social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter.
Commenting on the new service launch, SingTel’s Mr Allen Lew said: “SingTel, with Universal Music Group, will take our customers’ mobile music experience to unprecedented heights with AMPed. AMPed is another demonstration of SingTel’s transformation into a multimedia solutions company and how we are constantly developing new and innovative solutions that are relevant to our customers’ needs.”

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
