Mercora is NOW available - Try it for FREE

On Monday, I introduced Mercora to you and today, it is now available for you to try FREE.

Mercora, Inc. today announced the availability of the first mobile music service, Mercora "M," which transforms Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) Windows Mobile 5.0-based Smartphones and Pocket PC phones -- including the Motorola Q, Samsung SGH-i320 and Palm Treo 700wx -- into high-fidelity wireless music players.

Starting today and available through October 31, the Mercora M is offered as a FREE preview for Windows Mobile 5.0 users worldwide.

After the free preview period, Mercora M will be available at an introductory price of $4.99/month. Subscription packages for the M are as follows: $29.99 for six months, $49.99 for a year, and $99.99 for a two-year subscription.

Consumers can download and install the service today directly from this URL: http://www.mercora.com/M.

By installing the mobile application, Mercora M gives people "on-the-go" access to their complete digital music libraries on their PC's so they can listen anytime, anywhere from their mobile phones. In addition, M users can tune in to up to five of their friends' and family members' music collections and discover new artists and groups from around the world through social radio, which gives them access to more than 100,000 channels -- searchable by artist or genre -- over mobile 3G networks. The M is available as a free preview for all Windows Mobile 5.0 users worldwide.

"The Mercora M represents the next big step in mobile music enjoyment," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group. "The only device that can take the market away from the Apple iPod rapidly -- because it is more common -- is the cell phone. Mercora M represents the most aggressive technology to date for turning a 3G cell phone into a replacement for the iPod."

Chris Shipley, executive producer of DEMO, said: "The Mercora M will drive convergence in mobile phones and bring portability and flexibility to digital music download and discovery. The breadth, depth and fidelity of music delivered by the M is breathtaking."
