Barcelona - Motorola announced on Monday that it plans to integrate Microsoft's Windows Media Audio (WMA) on a number of its music-playing cell phones. The collaboration will enable the phones to connect to Windows-based PCs to sync music from PC to phone, and also to play songs from Windows Media-based digital music subscription services and online music stores. Motorola said it will begin selling Windows Media-based music phones in the second half of 2006, and plans to enable over-the-air delivery in 2007. Separately, Motorola said that some of its phones will enable Yahoo Music users to drag-and-drop podcasts from their PCs directly onto their mobile phones through the Yahoo Music Engine. Over-the-air delivery of podcast downloads is also planned in the future.
