Scandinavia Co. Subsidiary Inks Deal with Microsoft
Microsoft (MSFT) said it will market deo.com, Europe's leading music portal for the digital distribution of music on the Net, on several of its sites in Europe and the U.S.
In exchange, deo.com will lend its content to Microsoft's site.
"Our collaboration with deo.com enables thousands of users to download music over the Internet," said Lars Backhans, Nordic Head of Microsoft Consumer and Commerce Group. "The new features of WMA mean that we have CD-quality, in spite of the size of the downloaded files being only half that of MP3 files."
