TDC Mobile Leads the Way as the First Mobile Operator to Offer the Ground-Breaking Mobile Music Service Powered by 24-7 MusicShop
TDC Mobile, a subsidiary of TDC, a leading provider of
communications solutions in Europe, is the first mobile operator to
launch 24-7 MusicShop's state-of-the-art 'dual delivery' mobile music
download service.
The new service enables TDC Mobile customers to download music
tracks to their phone and receive simultaneous delivery to an online
account. The music can then be downloaded to a PC and burned or
transfered to another device. This fully integrated mobile and online
solution gives TDC Mobile all the premiere functions already available
on the award winning TDC Broadband music service also powered by 24-7
MusicShop. Features include an integrated ringtone service, gift
certificates, price discount modules, customer service management
tools and much more. The mobile service complies with all OMA 1
content protection standards.
The delivery of full track downloads to mobile phones has only
recently been introduced in the mobile market but already it has
proven to be a major success for distributing digital music.
The 24-7 dual delivery mobile music service is a strategic
component of TDC's 3G launch and will be featured on 24 out of 49
handsets that the platform supports. In addition to being a very
attractive signing-up bonus for premium services, it also generates an
additional revenue stream beyond that of normal voice services.
"We wanted to work with 24-7 MusicShop" said Soren Tvilsted,
Director Music at TDC, "because they not only have a proven reliable
and robust infrastructure, but they also have a very flexible platform
that we could customize and implement quickly. Additionally they're
committed to feeding us the best choice of music in the highest
quality which is just what our customers want."
"As our first customer for the dual delivery platform, TDC Mobile
have been invaluable in helping us ensure that easy, instant and
secure purchase of music are now also available via mobile." says
Frank Taubert, CEO of 24-7. "As an existing customer, they drove us to
develop a service tailored to the needs of the 21st Century mobile
phone operator and we are delighted that they have adopted the system
so enthusiastically."
