Aspiro Music teams up with Logitech – launches Squeezebox support today
Aspiro Music today announces it has entered into an agreement with Logitech to support their Squeezebox players. Available immediately, WiMP users in Norway can now enjoy wireless access to their music library with millions of songs anywhere in the house.
World-leading peripheral device maker Logitech provides its network music player Squeezebox to the worldwide market. Aspiro Music’s streaming service WiMP is from today available for users in Norway to activate from the Squeezbox website www.mysqueezebox.com, and supports both Squeezebox Touch and Squeezebox Radio, as well as older models. Users can with one easy step enjoy WiMP on the wireless system, with superior sound quality and the convenient remote control.
"We believe music needs to be conveniently available everywhere. The streaming technology is one step along the way, providing easy access to millions of tracks and albums. Adding the Squeezebox to the mix is a great example that makes the experience both more accessible and portable, since the wireless device can be used anywhere in your house.”, says Per Einar Dybvik, Managing Director of Aspiro Music.
“WiMP is a perfect provider of music for users of Logitech Squeezebox. They have an almost complete database of local and international music, and combined with their editorial content this makes our platform for digital music highly improved. We believe this can be seen as a crossroad for the way people acquire music in Norway”, says Robert Jacobsen, Nordic Retail Manager for Logitech.
The Aspiro Music service is available on iPhone, Android, PC, Mac and Linux and is launched under the WiMP-brand in Norway and Denmark. Support for Squeezebox users outside of Norway is planned for Q4 2010. Aspiro also delivers a music service as a fully managed and hosted white label service to several partners worldwide.
