Default Download Music To Your Smartphone From Destra and GoConnect

http://www.m-vision.tv/040503.shtml

"Destra Corporation Limited (ASX: DES), Australia's leading digital music service provider, has signed a deal with GoConnect Ltd (ASX:GCN) that will allow consumers to access music and video clips on their Windows Smartphones and Pocket PC's as well as receive high quality music video clips on their desktop computers. Destra's CEO, Mr Domenic Carosa said, "As the mobile phone increasingly becomes a multi-functional communication and mobile entertainment device, GoConnects m-Vision provides DestraMusic with the "early mover" advantage in new service delivery for the mobile phone industry." GoConnect's exclusive patented technology works by delivering high quality content without interfering with your download traffic by using the "vacant" space within the bandwidth. GoConnect's CEO, Mr Richard Li said, "Online music consumers buy music on a per download basis where every purchase is a separate decision to make. Our technology will help to increase their online music purchases by motivating the consumer to buy.""

Sounds interesting. Imagine hearing a cool song on the radio, and a couple taps on your Smartphone and you're downloading it. However, in today's world of DRM Madness I'm not sure that I would want to purchase music using my phone. I can just imagine the headaches involved with transferring the licenses from your phone to your desktop.
