3 to sell HTC Hero with Spotify

Mobile operator 3 has unveiled a plan that is sure to appeal to music fans of all ages. The HTC Hero on 3 comes complete with the HTC Hero and unlimited access to the digital music service Spotify via your mobile or PC for an entire 24 months, this service alone is worth £240.

The HTC Hero will be included for free, but the package in full will cost £35 a month for a two year period as well as an upfront fee of £99. Other benefits of the Spotify Mobile tariff includes 750 minutes to other mobiles, unlimited texts, unlimited calls to other 3 customers, unlimited email, internet browsing and Facebook as well as free Skype-to-Skype calls.

Initially exclusive on the HTC Hero, 3 expects to extend the service across a range of products including Mobile Broadband. By having Spotify on your mobile, customers will have access to the extensive jukebox the service provides whenever they are in a 3G network. Even when offline you will be able to access any playlists you have created, great for listening on the Tube!

Spotify Mobile on 3 will be available from November. More info here.
