Amazon to provide music to 'Google phone'

Amazon announced on Tuesday it will be preloading its Amazon MP3 store to the "Google phone," T-Mobile's G1, which is operating on Google's Android OS technology, PC Mag reported.

Customers will have a "phone-optimised" edition of the store which requires a phone connection to pre-listen to songs and a Wi-Fi connection to buy them, according to PC Mag.

Amazon has not changed the price of its songs, keeping them at 89 cents for each of its one million songs. It usually charges between US$5.99 to $9.99 for albums.

Amazon also mentioned that users will be able to "find and download unique applications to expand and personalise their phone to fit their lifestyle" as a result of an Android Market, according to PC Mag.
