In a move that brings cheers to Indian music lovers across the globe, popular publishing label Saregama-HMV, has put up its entire library of 1.10 lakh songs in 14 languages online for streaming free and also downloading it at a nominal price.
“We have created an online store which will allow people to buy our content. For sampling, we are offering the entire length of the song rather than only in parts,” the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group company managing director Vikram Mehra told PTI.
He said Saregama works with some of the popular online music streaming companies at present who act as a distributor for the content. With its own online store, it is going one step further and giving the consumers a chance to interact with it directly.
“Beyond this, it’s been forcing people to indulge in piracy as they don’t have a medium to access the collection. Even in piracy, there are chances that a person may not get a particular track or album which she is looking for,” Mehra said, adding all this will be resolved through the store.
The users will be able to listen to all the tracks by streaming them for free, following which they can download a track by paying as low as Rs 9 per song.
“We are giving 10 downloads of a single song across multiple devices on a single ID on payment of Rs 9,” he said, adding all the songs are on a high fidelity of 320 kbps, which maximises the quality.
