Music site set to turn up volume

11.02.05

By Owen Hembry

Digirama, New Zealand's only legal music download website, is aiming for a five-fold increase in the size of its music catalogue, while confronting new legislation that may steal its customers.

Record labels such as Warner Music have enabled the company, launched in November, to provide 50,000 online tracks.

This week's signing of American indie label The Orchard, which includes acts such as Coldplay, will raise the total to 60,000 songs.
