Greek entrepreneur Stelios Haji-Iouannou is expanding his Easy business empire with a new online music download service, including Robbie Williams and Coldplay.
Mr Haji-Iouannou's easyGroup said it had teamed up with London-based music subscription service Wippit to create easyMusic.com.
The web-based service will consist of two sections, Copyleft - which will feature material from unsigned artists, including music downloadable for free - and Copyright, offering current hits and back catalogue numbers starting at 25p per track.Copyright will launch before Christmas and Copyleft should be operational in the next couple of months, the group said.
The service is the latest in a portfolio of businesses under the easy banner including easyJet, easyInternetcafe, easyCinema, easyBus, easyPizza, easyCar and easy4Men.
Mr Haji-Iouannou said the service would offer "free or best value music downloads to consumers in all countries".
Chief executive and founder of Wippit Paul Myers said: "We're proud Stelios has chosen Wippit to wear the famous colours of easyMusic."
Wippit currently offers hundreds of thousands of downloads from artists including Robbie Williams, Natasha Bedingfield, Franz Ferdinand, Nickelback and Coldplay.
