MP3.com Japan Chooses Asia Global Crossing for Content Operations
📅 - Telecommunications and IP service provider Asia Global Crossing (asiaglobalcrossing.com) announced on Wednesday that it will provide broadband digital connectivity between the US and Tokyo for Japan.MP3.com, the recently launched Japanese operations of the major online music distributor MP3.com.
The MP3.com site allows customers to find, purchase, listen to, store and organize their music collection from anywhere, through any Internet device. Japan.MP3.com is the company's latest effort to bring its digital music offering to a global audience. And through Asia Global Crossing's 10 Mbps high-speed Dedicated Internet Access service, the site will be able to manage the large amounts of broadband content it needs to satisfy its hundreds of thousands of Japanese users.
According to MP3.com, now is an ideal time for digital music in Japan. The company points out that although the culture combines both a love of technology and a passion for music, digital music has yet to catch on in Japan. Because the company believes digital music could be the application that drives the expansion of Internet use in Japan, it feels it needs to be ready with the capacity to meet the demands that will arise.
Asia Global Crossing says providing its 10Mbps Dedicated Internet Access service to the MP3.com facility in Tokyo will provide a reliable environment for high-speed distribution of large volumes of digital music data between the two countries via Asia Global Crossing's trans-Pacific network, Pacific Crossing.
The Dedicated Internet Access service, which Asia Global Crossing launched in Japan on March 31, is the first phase of a comprehensive suite of Internet connectivity and IP services the company is designing for business use. The company says it aims to supply high-quality connectivity and IP services for a low cost.
