"This deal is a cornerstone in our European mobile strategy, and demonstrates our commitment to this fast moving sector."
Jamster's managing director, Markus Bergerde Leon, added, "Working with EMI means that we have joined forces with a very important major music label. We are extremely pleased to be able to present our customers an even more diverse selection of music, ringtones, and videos from great EMI artists."
