Addition of 20 new indie partners keeps the library growing.
The new partners include Beggars Group, Merge Records, Redeye Distribution, Tunecore and several others.
They join Universal, Sony Music, Warner Music and EMI as well as CD Baby, INgrooves, IODA and The Orchard. In fact, the Thumbplay roster includes more than 25,000 independent labels and more than 75,000 DIY artists.
Evan Schwartz, CEO of Thumbplay, said, I believe the speed with which we’ve been able to close deals for Thumbplay Music speaks to the strength of the app and the great need for a full service, on-demand and portable music experience."
Currently, Thumbplay Music is available by invitation-only on selected BlackBerry phones and PC/Mac. It is scheduled to launch officially in Q1 2010 for Android, iPhone and additional BlackBerry devices.
