Comes with Music Comes from The Orchard

Nokia has tapped The Orchard to serve as its premier independent provider for the launch of Comes with Music, which was announced earlier today in London.

Comes with Music offers customers unlimited access to millions of tracks for a year via the Nokia Music Store upon the purchase of a compatible Nokia device. After a year ends, customers can keep all the tracks they have downloaded. This groundbreaking service is powered in part by music from The Orchard's diverse and substantial 1.3 million-track catalogue.

Comes With Music customers will have instant access to tracks by thousands of Orchard-distributed artists from around the world, including favorites as diverse as Simply Red, Lil' Jon, Pitbull, The Holloways, Brett Anderson, Polyphonic Spree and Joe Brown.

As a part of this unique collaboration, Nokia will work closely with The Orchard, drawing from The Orchard's strong regional marketing staff and proprietary data sales analytic tools to assist Nokia in "localizing" the Comes With Music offering. Through custom playlist creation and other discovery tools, the Nokia service will be further tailored to customers in all of the diverse worldwide markets where Comes with Music will ultimately be available.
