“We are delighted to partner with 7digital to provide consumers with more choices and convenience to access millions of high-quality music via PowerDVD,” said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. “With the addition of PowerDVD music store, PowerDVD takes further steps to enhance user experience of the universal player.”

The PowerDVD music integration uses the 7digital API (application programming interface), which allows partners to access 7digital’s catalogue and build bespoke music download services. 7digital has a fully licensed catalogue of over 17 million tracks in MP3 format, the broadest geographical reach of any MP3 download service.. It provides access to the latest releases, as well as an extensive catalogue of some of the greatest music ever recorded across all musical genres.
