We7 gives you Great Music - FREE
We7 is an outstanding new music destination to listen, share and discover music for FREE, legally and safely. You choose the music you want to hear and play full tracks and albums online, on-demand at anytime. We also offer you the ability to buy the music you love in high quality mp3 downloads which you can play on iPods and most other digital players.

The We7 site and a series of high quality sharable widgets have been built to help you discover and share more great music, from the past and the present, for free. We have provided an economic business model that ensures rights owners and artists get paid for their amazing craft.

This is all made possible by We7's unique and significant 'MediaGraft' technology that allows us to dynamically attach adverts to the beginning of each track you stream or download. The 'MediaGraft' technology also creates new, targeted, advertising inventory which links the emotional power of music, creative short audio ads and digital display ads (such as MPUs) together in such a way that digital effectiveness measurements increase significantly. These ads are targeted at you, the user; the revenue generated from these adverts goes to artists, labels and other rights owners. You get music for free and the artist gets paid fairly - everybody wins.

So We7 provides a simple tariff
Listen, discover and share music streams online - free (supported by advertising).
Buy the music you love with high quality mp3 downloads to play anytime on iPods and most digital players (normally 320 kbps, with some at 256 kbps).
Discover music with free ad-supported mp3 downloads on a selection of artists, albums and tracks (normally lower quality bit rate of 192 kbps).
When we launched our service in May 2007, we had just 30 tracks available to our users. In a short space of time, we have reached over 4 million downloads, over 170,000 subscribers, and secured licences for music from some of the world's leading artists, record labels and distributors.

Co-founded by ex-Genesis front man and digital pioneer Peter Gabriel, we are a UK-based company with a music-obsessed team of music industry professionals, developers and technologists from around the world.

It's never been easier to discover new artists and share your music. Welcome to the We7 music revolution.
