In attempt to get a chunk of online music sales, Nokia opened up its own store but critics has nothing to say but it sucks.

Big players in the market like iTunes and Amazon.com has unique selling proposition but Nokia has nothing new to offer. Currently, download is limited to UK Internet users, supports only Internet Explorer browser and Windows Operating System, and it is DRM protected. Browser compatibility alone can be a headache from people using Firefox, Netscape, and others.

So why did they opened up? In 2005, UK music download sales reached 10 Million and are rising steadily. While Amazon Music Store is available only to United States customers, Nokia is trying to build its market on UK.
