"As the number one digital music service provider in the mobile telecommunications industry in Europe, Vodafone has revolutionized the way people experience music on their mobiles and the collaboration with Warner Music builds on this heritage," said Frank Rovekamp, Global Chief Marketing Officer, Vodafone Group. "Through our unique insight into what our customers want and how they prefer to listen to music this is yet another example of delivering superior music experience to customers."

In addition, Vodafone customers in selected markets including Spain, Portugal, Germany and Belgium will get exclusive mobile access to the newly released single '4 Minutes', effective immediately.
