The new T-Mobile G1 (HTC Dream) and other Google Android phones will offer an Amazon MP3 music store, allowing users to download music via Wi-Fi.
Amazon today announced that the Amazon MP3 music store will be pre-loaded on the T-Mobile G1 / HTC Dream, the world's first phone based on Google Android. T-Mobile G1 users can search, download, buy and play music from Amazon MP3, which offers over 6 million DRM-free MP3 songs from all four major music labels and thousands of independent labels.
The T-Mobile G1 comes pre-loaded with an Amazon MP3 application, giving customers a phone-optimized version of the Amazon MP3 store. Amazon MP3 has worked to make its DRM-free music available through numerous products and services, such as Pandora MySpace Music, and now Google Android and T-Mobile G1.
Downloading music from Amazon MP3 using the T-Mobile G1 requires a Wi-Fi connection, but searching, browsing, listening to samples and buying MP3s can be done wherever customers are connected to the T-Mobile network. Downloaded MP3s can be played anytime on the T-Mobile G1, PCs, Macs or any other MP3 music player.
The T-Mobile G1 combines full touch-screen functionality and a QWERTY keyboard with a mobile Web experience that includes Google services such as Google Maps with StreetView, Gmail, YouTube and others. The T-Mobile G1 is also the first phone to provide access to Android Market, where customers can find and download unique applications to expand and personalize their phone to fit their lifestyle.
Google Android is an open, free mobile platform developed by the Open Handset Alliance. It leverages web and Internet content to provide advanced services such as Mobile Mash-ups.
