Online music company Destra has added Harvey Norman to its roster of retail partners. The service will be featured on the retailer's new Web site www.musicandgames.com.au and promoted in its 157 stores.
Telecommunication services provider People Telecom and Destra have signed an agreement to enable People Telecom's residentially focused Swift broadband service division customers to download music online.
