HMV to launch brand new hmvdigital music downloads store

HMV's brand new digital music service, hmvdigital, officially launches this Monday 26th July 2010.  

The download service, which has been in beta testing since March, was built and is powered by HMV's digital partner 7digital – a leading digital media delivery company operating both consumer and B2B services for digital music, video and ebooks.

The new platform operates from its own stand-alone site at www.hmvdigital.com, though it can also be accessed via a link from HMV’s online store at hmv.com, thus giving customers the widest possible access.

The download store incorporates 7digital's cutting-edge technology – currently being used to great effect by the likes of Spotify and Blackberry. The new hmvdigital service is now faster and easier to use.  It comes with much-enhanced search capabilities, increased content of up to 10m tracks, and a host of innovative features that result in a far more intuitive and engaging customer experience.
