SpiralFrog, Inc., a free, ad-supported Web-based music experience, announced a digital distribution agreement with EMI Music, one of the world’s leading independent music companies. With the agreement, EMI’s expansive catalog of digital music and music videos will become available to consumers for legal downloading in North America via SpiralFrog.

The addition of the EMI catalog is a significant step forward for SpiralFrog, a North American source for ad-supported, legal music downloads. Artists found on EMI’s label include the Beach Boys, David Bowie, Miles Davis, Duran Duran, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, along with Coldplay, Norah Jones, Lenny Kravitz and Keith Urban.

“We are ecstatic about adding EMI’s content to SpiralFrog,” says SpiralFrog founder and chairman Joe Mohen. “Not only does this significantly expand our catalog of music and videos, it also demonstrates our continued content deal momentum. In just six months since our launch, SpiralFrog has grown to be the third largest legal download site in terms of registered users. We anticipate that the addition of the EMI catalog will fuel our growth even more.”

SpiralFrog allows music fans to get songs, albums, music videos, music news, artist bios, reviews, discographies and album art, among other rich-content features.
