Music fans will be able to stream songs by Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters and Kasabian on their computer for free from April, it’s been announced.

Thanks to a deal between SonyBMG and We7, a free-to-use online service which is supported by advertising, users will have access to Sony’s entire music catalogue.

This also includes artists such as Mark Ronson, Leona Lewis and The Ting Tings.

Sony BMG is the first major record label to sign with We7 since the service launched in May last year.

As with We7’s download service, a short, tailored advert will accompany each track.

Ged Doherty, chairman of SonyBMG in the UK and Ireland said the deal was “an important step forward in offering fans greater flexibility in how they consume music."

Initially songs by SonyBMG artists will only be available to existing We7 users, with new subscribers expected to get access shortly.
