Groove Mobile and 3UK announced a collaboration to power a new mobile music service on 3UK's network. Under the agreement, Groove Mobile will bring its music service to 3UK's 3G network.

"3UK's mobile music service powered by Groove Mobile will enable our customers to download music simultaneously from their phone to their PC and vice versa. It will bring online music purchasing for both home and mobile into one seamless experience. Once again this will demonstrate 3's leadership in this market and give a fabulous experience for our customers," said Graeme Oxby, 3UK's Marketing Director.

In addition to full-track music downloadable to mobile handsets, the new music service will include access to multiple charts, downloading high quality album art, shop and play, browsing and previews, and exclusive content. The music service will allow customers who purchase music over the air to get their track delivered to their handset, and get a copy of their track online. They can then play it on their laptop or PC, transfer it onto an MP3 player, or burn it onto a CD. They can also purchase the track on their PC and then download it free of charge, to their mobile. In the event that a customer loses a track, they are able to re-download the track up to 3 times, free of charge.
