Nokia Mix-radio - Refreshed service

Nokia is still one of the most loved brands in India, and Indians are quite music loving people. Nokia understood that massive business opportunity few years back and before the competition, launched Nokia OVI Music services globally and in India. Back then Nokia was the only mobile manufacturer invested heavily in Entertainment and Music services in India. Yes, world had Apple iTunes but in India Nokia Ovi Music was the only service with massive tie-ups with majority of Music Labels, Artists, Copyright Owners, etc. Nokia Dropped the OVI branding and their Music services renamed to Nokia Music.

Nokia Music Service became stealthy killer weapon for company, thanks to the massive music content available for absolutely free to Nokia Music Unlimited Customers. Yes that too DRM free with option to download high quality 256Kbps MP3 tracks directly from Nokia Music website or Nokia Music Player. Except Apple’s iTunes, there is not a single Music service available in India even today which provides more than 20 million tracks with huge regional content with tie-ups to almost every local and global Music Label. But here is the twist, iTunes does not give even a single track for free to Apple customers when they buy iOS device! But under Nokia Music Unlimited, the entire global catalogue of more than 26 million tracks is available absolutely free to the customers of a new Nokia device. In India we still have NMU services active and is bundled with Nokia Asha and Nokia Lumia devices.
