The latest Music Store portal opened by the Finnish giant mobile company is Nokia Music Store Australia, which comes as the seventh Store of this type, after the ones from the UK, Finland, Germany, Italy, Ireland and the Netherlands. As in the case of the already existing Nokia Music Stores, the Australian one will concentrate
on local bands and artists, as well as on internationally known acts, offering users access to millions of songs.
To celebrate the launch of the new Australian Music Store, Nokia comes with a live album from the popular group The John Butler Trio. The album was recorded last month (March 2008) and it's now exclusively available at the new Nokia Music Store.
Nokia Music Store Australia an be accessed (at this address) by music lovers either from their PCs or from select Nokia phones like Nokia N82, Nokia N95 8GB and Nokia N81 8GB. Moreover, users can sync music from their computer on lots of Nokia handsets.
To help users find their favorite music, Nokia teamed up with Jimmy Barnes, the legendary Australian rock singer, who will make recommendations and suggest playlists to the visitors of the portal.
There are various payment options for buying tracks from Nokia Music Store, including pre-paid vouchers and credit cards. One song will cost buyers 1.70 AUD (Australian dollars), while full-length albums come for prices starting at 17.00 AUD.
"Not only do we have millions of tracks available for consumers," says Shaun Colligan, General Manager, Nokia Australia, "but we have something for everyone, whatever their music tastes. Australian consumers can be confident that the Nokia Music Store will have a broad range of genres including popular and non-mainstream genres and independent artists."
"We want to be the most locally relevant music store and will feature artists such as The John Butler Trio, The Presets, Pete Murray, Kate Miller Heidke, Powderfinger, Silverchair, Lior, Cut Copy, Kisschasey, Kasey Chambers and many more!", also added Mr. Shaun Colligan.
