Sony Unveils Music Unlimited

September 2nd, 2010 No Comments

Sony unveils Music Unlimited which is a new wy to manage music and listen to music.

It is basically seen as a iTunes competitor.

It’s based solely around streaming titles from Sony’s servers rather than physically purchasing individual files, which can be a costly affair.

Music Unlimited joins the already available video-on-demand service of Sony’s Qriocity service, which now sports a two-part tagline: “Music that follows you. Instant blockbuster movies.”

(Interestingly mSpot has been using the tagline “music that follows you” since launching last June.)
