Search specialist Mobile Content Networks has launched a music discovery service for Yahoo! Japan.
Uta Search is available from the home page of Yahoo! Japan and is available to nearly 80,000,000 mobile users across the NTT DoCoMo and KDDI/au wireless networks. It is the first of several such channels that MCN will power for Yahoo! Japan for Mobile
"MCN believes that mobile search is not an 'all or nothing' proposition, and that mobile operators and portals must create an ecosystem that leverages best practices and partners in order to drive high value transactions," said MCN CEO Marc Bookman.
"Our collaboration with Yahoo! Japan for Mobile is an excellent example of this shared understanding, one that begins by putting user needs first."
MCN currently supports more than a dozen distribution partners in Japan, Finland, Thailand, China, and the U.S. covering over 130m mobile subscribers.
