LONDON -
- In Partnership With CableCom Networking, we7 Free Streaming is on Track to Serve Over 100,000 Students in the UK
- Easy Alternative to Illegal File Sharing Offered to UK Students Requires no Additional Software or Registration
Free music streaming site, we7 announces a joint contract with CableCom to provide direct access to its extensive music library via CableCom’s student internet service. CableCom will make the we7 service directly available via the internet service homepage. The we7 service requires no application or programme download, offering the UK student community quick, cost-effective and easier than ever access to over four million tracks.
Steve Purdham, CEO at we7, comments: “Students are a very selective group who want quick access to new and cutting edge music. This generation has grown up downloading files and is therefore less likely to dwell on the consequences of illegal downloads; they don’t want to steal music but their money is often tight. The real solution to this problem is offering them a viable and true alternative to theft.”
In addition to an extensive and constantly growing library of songs and albums, the student community will also have access to exclusive previews of new music in advance of its release and an unparalleled collection of unsigned and up and coming acts, often overlooked by music providers.
Purdham continues: “The solution offered by we7 and CableCom is easily accessible, quick and offers the latest music as well as a wide range of unsigned acts which can’t be accessed elsewhere.”
Paul Kan, Director at CableCom Networking Ltd, comments: “We are delighted to be kick starting our relationship with we7 by offering this valuable service to our student community. The financial constraints on students due to fees and cost of living increases are often in conflict with their desire to consume music, potentially leading them to download files illegally when finances are tight. The solution from we7 and CableCom Networking matches their needs and helps them manage their budgets while staying ‘music legal.”
