LiveWire Mobile, a subsidiary of NMS Communications, has acquired privately-owned Groove Mobile, 
a leading provider of mobile music solutions based in Bedford, Massachusetts, for $14.5 million. The acquisition will enable LiveWire Mobile to meet operators’ growing demand for a portfolio of managed services, including ringback tones, ringtones, full track music and video downloads, delivered through an integrated storefront.
Groove Mobile claims 12 global mobile operator customers, including Sprint, 3 UK and Bell Mobility as well as relationships with the major music labels including EMI, Sony BMG, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group.
