How To Download "Guitar" — The First Single From "Planet Earth," Prince's New Unreleased Album — Free And Exclusively Through V CAST Song ID From Verizon Wireless

Legendary artist and music icon Prince and Verizon Wireless announced they have joined forces to revolutionize the consumer experience of digital music discovery, delivery and download, starting with Prince's new single, "Guitar." Music fans can get the single today — weeks before the highly-anticipated release of "Planet Earth," his new studio album release — when they use Verizon Wireless' free new V CAST Song ID to identify the single.

With Verizon Wireless' exclusive new V CAST Song ID, customers can hear a song, hold the phone toward the music so it can identify the music and purchase a full-track song, Ringtone or Ringback tone — all right over-the-air from their phones. Customers only need a V CAST Music-enabled phone to start identifying songs playing from any music source.

V CAST Song ID is available as a free download initially on select V CAST Music-enabled phones, including Chocolate by LG, The enV by LG, the LG VX8700 and VX9400, MOTORAZR maxx Ve and Samsung SCH-u620.
