Remember back in July when we noted 7Digital was still working with BlackBerry on a solution to offer music to BlackBerry customers? They seemingly wanted to get the message out thanks to it having a negative effect on their stock. At the time, we postulated that the arrangement could end up simply being the release of a 7Digital app on BlackBerry World and lo and behold, that's exactly what has happened.
Rather than miss out on any customers they gained from being the music provider for BlackBerry World, 7Digital simply adjusted their Android app a bit and have placed it in BlackBerry World. Now anyone who was worried about purchasing music after July 21st, when BlackBerry will be removing movies and music, can continue to use 7Digital if they do so wish in addition to being able to access their already purchased content.
Sure, it would have been nice to see them build a native app instead of porting the Android version over but in any case, it's nice to see they worked out a solution for people. The app is live in BlackBerry World right now, so you can download it as you see fit.
