Warner hold out on Nokia Music Store

Warner Music is reportedly withholding its catalogue from the new Nokia Music Store which opened for business here in the UK yesterday. According to the Wall Street Journal, Warner object to another Nokia service called MOSH which enables users to easily swap audio and video content via their mobile. The major is reportedly concerned that that service - launched in August but still in beta stage - enables music fans to illegally exchange songs via their mobiles, and says they won't play ball with the Music Store until those concerns are addressed. A Nokia spokesman has confirmed to the Journal that their negotiations with Warner are ongoing, though didn't reveal much about why, just saying: "We are hopeful that Warner will be part of Nokia Music Store in the future".
