Gramophone to
offer customised music at Hamaracd.com
If you are a lover of Indian music, you can now order your
very own CD of Indian music selections from anywhere in the
world -- online. Courtesy hamaracd.com.
Hamaracd.com, a website launched by the Gramophone Company
of India’s Vice Chairman Sanjiv Goenka, allows you to
compile your own CD of your favourite titles. You can also
design the CD cover, give your own title and print a personal
message on the cover. Order online and get the CD delivered
at your doorstep, for a paltry sum of Rs. 375.
These CDs are currently available for shipments within India.
The company plans to extend its delivery operations to the
US market by December this year and to the rest of the world
by mid-2001.
The CDs will be customised at the RPG’s fully-computerised
facility in Chennai. Orders will be downloaded from the Net
several times a day and the CDs produced using CDwriters will
be hooked on a LAN system connected to a content server. The
site offers the widest possible selection of Indian music
available with any company. This R.P. Goenka flagship itself
owns over 150,000 titles across all genres of Indian music
-- from Hindi films to Bengali, Tamil and other regional films,
Carnatic and Hindustani classical music to ghazals.
Goenka said that the Hamaracd operation will be housed in
a US-based company, Hamara CD Inc, in which 70 per cent of
the shares will be held by Gramophone Company and 30 per cent
by its UK-based subsidiary, Saregama Plc.
