Lookout – impressive claims incoming……
MusicStation, the unlimited download service from Omnifone (and available exclusively on Vodafone UK) is apparently now the UK’s largest digital music subscription service, overtaking even PC-based services….crumbs!
We’ve written about Omnifone’s MusicStation offering numerous times before, but this really is quite an impressive achievement. The CEO of Omnifone was quite bullish about it too:
“MusicStation makes the traditional ‘PC centric’ model, where users have to download music to PC before transferring it to a portable device, an unnecessary and outdated concept,” said Rob Lewis, CEO of Omnifone. “With MusicStation, Vodafone consumers have the freedom to download as much music as they want, direct to a wide range of mobiles over the data network, anywhere, at any time, without the need for a computer, an internet connection, wires or even a credit card.”
I have no idea how the stats are compiled and compared to come up these kinds of statements, but as I said, if it’s true, then it’s quite an achievement – with a number of other heavy-hitting players in the market, Omnifone are definitely punching above their weight!
MusicStation is available to download on a wide range of Vodafone mobiles in the UK directly from Vodafone live! free of charge. The latest MusicStation handsets are available in Vodafone and Phones 4u stores and online at www.vodafone.co.uk.
