Nokia have finally confirmed the launch of its Comes With Music service, choosing the UK as the global launch pad.

The Nokia XpressMusic 5310 handset will be the first on the service and will be exclusive to Carphone Warehouse the company has said.

Comes With Music gives people a year of unlimited access to the entire Nokia Music Store catalogue with the ability to keep all downloaded tracks after the year is over.

Once the Comes with Music service has expired after the year, users can keep all the music they've downloaded and continue to update their collection with what Nokia describes as "a la carte" purchases.

The "Music Vault" in the Nokia Music Store will also contain all tracks previously downloaded for re-download in case a user has lost their track or license.

Simon Ainslie, Nokia UK managing director said "Comes With Music is the most compelling digital music offer ever introduced to the UK".

Carphone Warehouse is accepting pre-orders starting today.

Carphone Warehouse is the UK exclusive pre-pay channel until December 31st, 2008. Further details about Comes With Music will be announced at a Nokia event to be held in London on 2 October 2008.
