In the first foray by a U.S. wireless carrier into the online music market, AT&T Wireless is launching a service that lets subscribers buy songs using their cell phones and later download them to a computer. Until now, mobile music sales have centered on ringtones, the song snippets used to customize ringer and other sounds on mobile phones.
At Tuesday's launch, mMode Music Store will offer roughly 750,000 tracks priced at 99 cents each. Full albums will start at $9.99. To buy songs on the service, an AT&T Wireless customer would use their phone's browser screen to search for tracks and, on some phones, listen to 30-second song samples. The mMode store will also sell ringtones.
