Why Anghami?
Anghami (“My Tunes” in Arabic) was founded by Elie Habib and Eddy Maroun as there was no access to iTunes in Lebanon and they wanted to fight against P2P services. As mentioned in an article of Music Business Worldwide, “What we learned from Spotify at the time is actually what makes us successful today – to make sure that we don’t adopt Spotify’s business model, because it will not scale in the Middle East.”says Elie Habib. They want to serve the Middle East, know the culture and the needs of each region, and also compete against the piracy.
