Nokia's 'Comes With Music' Service
Gets Hands-On Video Treatment

Folks from over at stuff.tv blog were lucky enough to get the first hands on video footage of the Nokia's Comes with Music service on the Nokia XpressMusic 5310, special 'Comes With Music' edition .

It was mentioned here before but just in case you have somehow missed it, CWM service is currently only available in United Kingdom and is exclusively available through the Carphone Warehouse on the Nokia 5310 handset powered with its S40 platform.

There is nothing new about it, as we’ve expected, its functionality is very similar to any other music download service, but it is still an interesting video demo which shows how it might looks like and what we can expect to get out of this service, once when it hits S60 family.

It’s impossible to embed this video so just click on the image below to play it in the new window.

Tero Ojanperä, Executive Vice President and Head of the Nokia Entertainment and Communities business, said: "We believe that Comes With Music will transform the way people enjoy music. With unlimited music access for a year, you can enjoy your favorite artists or delve into new genres without having to worry about individual track or album purchases."

Simon Ainslie, Nokia UK Managing Director, said: "Comes With Music is the most compelling digital music offer ever introduced to the UK. You get a fantastic Nokia device with unlimited access for a year to a huge catalog of music. We're thrilled to be working with Carphone Warehouse to bring Comes With Music to the UK."

Andrew Harrison, UK CEO, The Carphone Warehouse, said: "We expect the Nokia 5310 Comes With Music to be the gift for Christmas and at the top of all shopping lists. We know how much our customers love music and we hope to make music millionaires of people everywhere."
