Sony Ericsson are launching their own version of an all you can eat mobile phone music download service, writes Telecoms.com. The new service, dubbed PlayNow plus, will go live in Q4 and will be based on the firm's current PlayNow music store. The service includes a social aspect with subscribers able to recommend music to other users. Users will also have access to a free PC music player letting them listen to all their tracks via computer. Finally, subscribers will be allowed to keep up to 300 of their most-played tracks DRM-free once their subscriptions have ended. Sony Ericsson have signed up all four major record labels as part of the deal.
