Om Malik writes that Nokia is getting serious about music.  They are creating a new music discovery and recommendation service that will be 'curated by David Bowie'.  It looks like Nokia is getting ready to take on Apple and provide their own end-to-end music experience, centered around a Nokia 'multi media computer' phone.  Om suggests that they may have a shot at doing well in the European marketplace.

Nokia has long been interested in this space. Paralleling companies Fraunhofer and Shazam, Nokia also developed audio fingerprint technology for cellphones and demoed it at.. ISMIR 2001 maybe? Or was it ISMIR 2002? Either way, they've long been doing this. Nice to see that they have followthrough.
