Led Zeppelin`s music to be sold online

MUMBAI: British rockers Led Zeppelin will offer their music online for the first time next month.The band, whose reunion gig in London in November prompted more than a million fans to apply for 10,000 available tickets, is one of the last major pop music acts to offer their catalogue digitally.Led Zeppelin, which disbanded in 1980 following the death of drummer John Bonham, will make its albums available for download from all online music retailers says a report by Reuters.

The group behind such hits as "Stairway to Heaven" and "Communication Breakdown", which has sold an estimated 300 million albums worldwide, joins the digital revolution sweeping the music industry as physical CD sales continue to fall. As well as downloads, Led Zeppelin is teaming up with mobile provider Verizon Wireless to provide ring tones and full song downloads. Verizon Wireless is owned by Verizon Communications Inc and Vodafone Group Plc.The group will also release "Mothership", a two-CD collection spanning the group`s 12-year career and a remixed version of "The Song Remains the Same" soundtrack from the band`s three-night stint at Madison Square Garden in 1973.
