“Strategies must focus on signing up casual music users. Music fanatics should not be the target of bundled services. These users will find music streaming services of their own accord. Any bundled offering should take aim at the type of casual users that operators have in spades, but who are not on the radar of any music streaming service.”

Mobile music for the mass market
Demand for music is vast and research shows that the mainstream market remains largely underserved and under-monetised.
Why mobile music hasn’t been a bigger hit:
Cost inefficiency and complexity of IP billing and network charges
Rights management is complex across even single territories
Difficult to establish a flexible model that spans both mass and niche markets
Challenges of bringing network operators, handset manufacturers, content owners and leading brands together
Music, on its own, is not enough to engage the end-user
