Electric Jukebox: Taking on music streaming services, home entertainment systems

The Electric Jukebox Company was established by Rob Lewis, previously founder of music service provider Omnifone, and Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of The Year, when he tried to find an easy to use music streaming system for the home to replace his mum and dad’s old HiFi. He found music streaming services alienate many consumers by forcing them to commit to credit card subscriptions and to endure needlessly complicated apps for computers and smartphones when most people just want easy access to the music they love. In a YouGov poll commissioned for The Electric Jukebox Company only 8% of consumers subscribed to music streaming in the UK, while less than 50 million people subscribed worldwide.
