Orange and Nokia are to jointly launch Nokias Comes With Music service exclusively for Orange customers in the UK, on the Nokia 5800.
Offering access to the Nokia Music Store with over 6 million tracks, Comes With Music will be available from Orange on the device across a selection of Orange pay monthly price plans and upgrades from Friday 29 May. In addition, the Nokia 5800 Comes With Music handset will be available exclusively to Orange customers in black or silver.
Orange will be the only UK network to offer the service, which starts at 24.47 per month for 200 minutes of talk time, 300 texts and unlimited music downloads from the Nokia Music Store, which holds over 6 million songs. There are four other packages, all offering unlimited music downloads, the most expensive being a 44.04 per month deal offering 1200 minutes talk time and 500 texts. All are on 24-month contracts.
Once signed up, customers will be able to download unlimited free tracks from the Nokia Music Store to their PC, for transfer to their Nokia 5800 handset. Orange customers will also be able to download tracks over the air via their handset at standard mobile data prices. Consumers will be able to download as much music as they like for the length of the two year contract and can keep that music once that period ends.
Mobile music is key to both Orange and Nokia, so were delighted to have them as our exclusive operator for Comes With Music on our best-seller, the Nokia 5800, says Nokia UK Managing Director, Mark Loughran.
