Beggars do Kerchoonz deal
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 17 July 2009
Music networking and streaming service Kerchoonz.com has announced a deal with the Beggars Group which will mean users of the ad-funded streaming platform will be able to access 20,000 tracks from across the indie’s catalogue.
Which is nice. Beggar’s digital man Simon Wheeler confirmed the deal, telling reporters: “We’re committed to making our catalogue available through as wide a range of services as possible. Kerchoonz was constructed with artists’ rights in mind and it is exactly the kind of company which the industry should support”.
Kerchoonz co-founder Indiana Gregg added: “This deal will allow us to provide an even broader selection of great independent music for all music lovers. We are honoured to be working with The Beggars Group and look forward to doing our part to help grow their digital business”.
