Exclusively for the Paris airports The 50m² music area provides passengers with individual alcoves equipped with Samsung Galaxy
Tab 10.1 tablets to relax while listening to music.
The tablets allow free and exclusive access to the SOUNDCORNER application, developed by Universal Music for the Samsung Galaxy Tab. Universal Music offers a selection of a hundred songs to listen to free of charge, renewing the selection every month.
The alcoves also have connection stations to plug in your own device (iPod, MP3 reader, etc.) so you can listen to your own music with your headphones or via the directional sound speakers fitted in every alcove. A central screen also plays video clips non-stop.
"After the high-def movies, the PlayStation areas or the children's play areas, we have expanded our entertainment offer to provide passengers with music. The SOUNDCORNER is the 30th service launched by Aéroports de Paris in the past five years to improve our passengers' comfort," says Olivier Tarneaud, head of the Aéroports de Paris Marketing department.
