Classical music record label Naxos is making its catalog available through MusicGiants.com. MusicGiants.com also is carrying music from PentaTone, a Dutch-based label distributed by Naxos of America. The deals follow Naxos’s launch earlier this year of its own download store, ClassicsOnline.com, which sells digital music free of digital-rights-managed technology. Naxos has also offered its entire catalogue on eMusic.com since 2005.
“The aggressive approach to distributing its music in digital form is part of a broader strategy on the part of Naxos–which is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2007–to fully develop into a music-based multi-media company,” the company says. “In addition to ClassicsOnline, Naxos offers a host of online streaming services geared towards the educational market, including Naxos Music Library, Naxos Spoken Word Library and Naxos Music Library Jazz. Naxos AudioBooks are available as downloads through its own site and Audible.com.”
