Nokia on Monday announced a long-term agreement to use longtime rival Microsoft's technology to help transfer music between cell phones and computers.
At the ongoing 3GSM World Congress in Cannes, France, Microsoft and Nokia said they plan to collaborate to help wireless customers use a service debuted by Nokia and digital-media specialist Loudeye. Nokia, in turn, will support Microsoft's Windows Media Audio, Windows Media Digital Rights Management and Media Transfer Protocol software in its handsets.
