Consumers' experience of content shopping is greatly enhanced through Catalogs’ advanced on-device caching of content metadata which allows free browsing of the content stores in the mobile mall, as well as frequent content updates, integrated preview/prelisten and proficient content installation capabilities.

Other content providers offering exclusive music and entertainment content and services on Nokia Catalogs include Jamba, Warner Bros Digital Distribution, Sony Pictures, Electronic Arts and Handango. Today Nokia Catalogs can be found in the hands of over 20million consumers worldwide.
