Today, Orange Romania announced through a press release that it offers its customers the opportunity to listen to the music offered by Deezer for free, Orange offering customers 6 months of free access to this service, apparently also covering data traffic for streaming. Deezer is an audio streaming system with over 20 million songs available at any time, even for the iOS platform, but only Pantera subscriptions have access to Orange's promotion. You can find the details of the promotion in the press release below.
UPDATE: It seems that in the initial release it was not explained clearly enough how exactly you benefit from Deezer from Orange. Practically everyone who now signs a Pantera subscription for 2 years or extends another for a period of 2 years, receives Deezer for free for 6 months. The rest of the users can buy Deezer Premium through Orange at the price of €5, Deezer normally selling the package at the price of €7.
Thus, customers who buy one of the Pantera subscriptions with a two-year contract or extend by two years the contract for the Pantera subscription they are already using receive unlimited music through Deezer for 6 months. They also benefit from unlimited mobile internet and TV in the Orange Mobile Portal for 6 months.
Customers who have other Orange subscriptions or have a Pantera subscription, but do not make a two-year contract extension during the promotion period, have the opportunity to buy the Deezer Premium + option for 4,99 euros (VAT included). The option gives them access to the Deezer catalog and they can listen to music on their computer or mobile, consuming the data traffic included in the subscription or being charged according to the data traffic made. Soon the option will also be available for Orange PrePay customers.

Orange offers unlimited music in partnership with Deezer
Bucharest, November 21, 2012. For the first time, Orange brings to Romanian customers unlimited music through Deezer, one of the most popular audio streaming services worldwide, with over 26 million users.
According to a study on the digital market in Romania, carried out between January and February 2012 on a representative sample of Romanian internet users, 9 out of 10 Romanians surveyed declare that music is part of their life, while 8 out of 10 young people listen to music in while they are moving or busy with other activities. For 9 out of 10 users, it is essential that the service is easy to use and offers HD audio quality. That's why, to give customers the opportunity to listen to music anywhere, anytime and in high quality, Orange recommends the latest generation smartphones, such as Samsung Galaxy S III mini, Samsung Galaxy S III, HTC Windows Phone 8S and HTC Windows Phone 8X, along with Pantera subscriptions that offer unlimited music via Deezer for 6 months.

The music service through Deezer, included in Panteră subscriptions, can be accessed from the mobile phone, through a dedicated application, compatible with iOS, Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry OS mobile operating systems, and on the computer, through an account. Orange customers have access to over 20 million songs, this being the streaming service with the most extensive catalog in Romania. Customers can listen, organize and share their favorite songs on Facebook and Twitter anytime, anywhere, unlimitedly, from any compatible mobile device. Playlists of your favorite songs and albums can be downloaded to your phone and listened to even offline.
Orange customers who do not have a Pantera subscription can buy the Deezer Premium + option for 4,99 euros (VAT included), which gives them access to the Deezer catalog and can listen to music on their computer or mobile phone, through the Deezer application, being charged according to the data traffic achieved. Soon the option will also be available for Orange PrePay customers.
"With the evolution of digital content services and compatible mobile phones, the interest of users to access these services on mobile has also increased, so that they are now an integral part of their lives. We are delighted that, starting this holiday season, we can offer a large number of customers Deezer unlimited music service on mobile, an easy-to-use, intuitive service with an impressive catalog, along with other unlimited benefits of Pantera subscriptions”, said Julien Ducarroz, Chief Commercial Officer Business to Consumer Orange Romania.
