Nokia MixRadio is spun off as a stand-alone streamer

"I’ve been meeting with potential investors around the world in the last few weeks. We have very strong interest from investors in the U.S., Europe and Asia, and we remain open for further discussions."-Jyrki Rosenberg, CEO, Nokia MixRadio
With iOS and Android now in its sight, Nokia MixRadio does have some competition from other music streamers like Pandora. And of course, Apple's newly purchased Beats Music is also in that conversation. Rosenberg says that Microsoft is shifting its entertainment blueprint from using in-house content providers, to working with partners. So that has opened the door for Nokia MixRadio to go after users of other platforms besides Windows Phone. Sure, it's a dog-eats-dog business, but right now the app is running in 31 countries and has millions of users, which means that it has a solid footing from which it can expand.
