London -- Wippit, an independent music download service that features some peer-to-peer elements, announced that it has signed agreements to license songs from Warner Music and Universal Music, giving the company agreements with all four major record labels. Under the terms of the agreements, some songs will initially be available either only in the U.K. or only in continental Europe. London-based Wippit said the deals will increase its available library of songs to over 500,000. Neither label's songs will be available on Wippit's closed peer-to-peer file-sharing service, which only allows authorized songs to be traded among Wippit subscribers. The company also operates an a la carte paid music download service.
