A couple of the Music Ally team are Virgin Media customers, and we just got letters talking about some of the telco’s new services – which seemingly include a cloud-based music storage service called My Stuff, which also includes photos.”You’ll never need to worry about losing your favourite photos or your entire music collection again,” says the letter. “Once it’s online, you can securely access it from any computer, anywhere.”It’ll be one of the first times a big ISP has launched such a service, so we’re intrigued to see how they’ve sorted the copyright / legal issues around this kind of thing.

He joins from mobile operator Orange, where he was head of music and film partnerships.
