Nokia announced today that its new "Comes With Music" initiative will launch first in the UK, and UK papers are full of breathless stories wondering if Nokia can wage successful "battle" against Apple. But before any talk of taking on Apple can have meaning, the service itself needs to deliver. And does it? We're skeptical.

Remember Nokia's Comes with Music (CWM) service? The service which includes a full year of free DRM'd music downloads with the purchase of a CWM cellphone. Up to this point, Nokia has refused to comment on the financial details of the service. Important since "free" is expected to be anything but free with those music costs tucked neatly into the price of the handset, the carrier's data plan, or both.
