We7 sign up Beggars
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 19 January 2009
Free music service We7 have signed up the Beggars Group, which means the indie group’s music will be available via We7’s free on-demand streaming service.
We7 top man Steve Purdham says this: “Discussions with Beggars, and Simon Wheeler in particular, on digital music in the early days of We7, were both illuminating and significant to the development of our business. As such, it is a great honour, to be able to sign a deal with such an influential label group, and to be able to offer our users access to their incredible music catalogue”.
Beggars’ digital supremo Simon Wheeler adds this: “We’re pleased to add We7 to our long list of digital partners across the world. Making our music available to the fast growing We7 audience will enable more fans to discover and enjoy our poll topping, award winning and best selling artists and labels. We’re looking forward to working with We7 to help develop their service further and drive more revenues from both the ad supported and retail elements of their business”.
