I want a list of the leading music sevice providers in Germany. I need
atleast 5 names.

I attach 2 examples for music service providers
in the US: companies like Muzak, DMX music, Music Choice an PlayNetwork
in the UK: a list (in the ppl site) of music service providers (Hard
Disk based) can be found in the following link:

Dear wolfydman,

The German market for "plain" music as provided by companies like
Muzak is rather small and in the hands of only three major players:
The German divisions of Muzak and DMX, and the French music provider
Mood Music. To extend the list to at least five entries, I decided to
add two music providers that deliver their music mainly as background
music for retail stores, with advertising messages inserted if
requested by the subscriber.

Are you aware to more companies that provide "music mainly as background
music for retail stores, with advertising messages inserted if
requested by the subscriber" ?

These companies are OK for us too

Dear wolfydman,

I will try to find some more companies who provide this kind of service.

Scriptor

You seem, from multiple posts, to be researching multiple EU markets.
Why not save yourself a lot of time and take a look at the following
publication. This is the kind of publication the likes of DMX, Sony
and EMI purchase:

Global Music Industry (3rd Edition) November 2003
http://www.bizlib.com/ZINMUSIC.html
http://www.biz-lib.com/ZINMUSIC.html

IF it's not, then I'm sorry for taking up your time, but you do seem
to be looking for business intelligence of this calibre. It would be
nice if you gave me a post back with what you thought of my posting.

You are right - I will be happy to have the right publication for the
EU markets if such do exist...

Specifically this publication is not good for me since it is related
to the global music business which is mainly focused on the consumer
side. I am interested only in the business segment of this music
market and in the service providers in this domain.

Regards
Wolfy
