SonyBMG win mobile award

SonyBMG was named Best Music Label at the Mobile Entertainment Awards in London, with Shazam, Apple and O2 also taking prizes.

SonyBMG won the prize for Best Music Label at the Mobile Entertainment Awards in London last night, recognised for their work in, well, mobile entertainment I guess. Song name provider Shazam won the prize for Best Music Service Provider, while Apple won Best Handset and O2 Best Operator, both mobile firms active in the music space of course. Nokia Exec VP Anssi Vanjoki won an Outstanding Contribution To Mobile Entertainment prize, possibly for confusing everyone with his company's Comes With Music thing.

Commenting on the awards, Tim Green, Executive Editor of Mobile Entertainment magazine, said this: "The mobile content market has had another blistering year, turbo-charged by the collective drive of Nokia, Apple, Google and others to take mobile rich media into the mainstream. We're delighted that nearly 400 execs came together last night to help us celebrate the industry's amazing progress. Congratulations to all the winners".
