Comes With Music to Come with Music from All Majors

Nokia is negotiating with Sony BMG and Warner Music Group to join its Comes With Music all-you-can-eat music service, Fierce Mobile Content reports. EMI said last week that it’s talking to Nokia about signing up for the service that’s scheduled to launch last in the year. Universal, the largest of the major label groups, had already agreed to participate by the time Nokia unveiled plans for the service several months back.

According to the article, Nokia executive VP of marketing Anssi Vanjoki told the Financial Times that the handset maker has ongoing “negotiations and discussions” with all four major labels and a number of independents for deals that would include revenue-sharing.
