7digital music store app headed to Windows Phone in January, North American expansion planned
7digital brought its 13 million track-strong music store to the BlackBerry Playbook earlier this year, and it looks like it now has another new platform in its sights. The company confirmed today that it plans to release a music store app for Windows Phone 7.5 devices in January, apparently with a little help from a partnership with Microsoft. The app itself will seemingly be similar to those found on other platforms (Metro UI styling aside), including the ability to preview tracks before purchasing, and lower quality files that can be downloaded over 3G and later upgraded when a WiFi connection is available. In addition to that rather large music library, 7digital's store is also notable for offering many of its tracks in 24-bit FLAC format, with the standard offering being 320kbps MP3 files -- 7digital also claims to now have 3 million customers. What's more, the company also announced today that it will begin expanding its North American operations in the new year, complete with some new offices and a new president of 7digital North America: Vickie Nauman, who came to 7digital from Sonos and has been serving as VP until now. The press release is after the break.7digital music store app headed to Windows Phone in January, North American expansion planned originally appeared on Engadget on Tue, 06 Dec 2011 12:16:00 EDT.
