Yes keep forever.

The deal is available on PAYG mobiles as well as contract.

If you buy a Nokia 5310 from Orange they are £130 on PAYG. This then
gets you a 12 month subscription to Nokia's music service where you can
download any of 2.1 million tracks they have. Once downloaded they are
yours to keep forever.

The snags are that you can only use them on one computer (although they
will allow you to transfer them to another once the computer dies - the
idea is they are only available on one computer at a time) and you can
only play them on your nokia phone.

Seems a great deal to me. Only problem is I already have a PAYG Nokia
5310 and the downloads are only available with a newly purchased
phone!

As for the 5310 - it is a good phone and the sound quality as a
portable music player is very good, better than most other phones I
have heard and as good as most mp3 players too. It can only have a max.
of 8gb memory, but that is quite a good anmount really.

I just wonder if it is possible to download the tracks and store them
on my NAS drive and play them through slimserver to my squeezebox?

[slim] Nokia Comes with Music

2008-11-11 Thread Ant

Hi all

Anyone familiar with this new mobile phone music service?

It seems that you get unlimited downloads to your phone and one
registered pc (one at a time anyway) and that any tracks downloaded are
yours to keep forever (although some sort of copy protection must exist
to restrict them to one pc at a time)

Anyone know whether these would work with slimserver?

Cheers, Ant

Keep forever? i thought this was a subscription based service, like
Rhapsody and Napster etc?
