"Not only will this help Samsung to reinvent its SFC site as a true community, in doing so, it provides Samsung's customers with a great reason to visit the site again."

As the content is endorsed by artists, it also offers consumers a direct online source of up to the minute information on what is hot in the urban music scene." Launching simultaneously on the SFC site is the 'Artist Exclusive' section within the premium content channel that will offer an array of downloadable realtones from a wide range of artists, from current chart stars such as Jamelia to all-time greats such as the Beach Boys and Duran Duran, plus a classical selection. Samsung mobile phone owners who are members of the Samsung Fun Club will have access to the new download content, while the editorial content is accessible to all who visit the Samsung mobile website. Alternatively, Samsung mobile phone owners can directly access the 'Urban Music Zone' by pressing the blue 'i' button on their phones, which will take them to the Samsung WAP site where they can log in.
