Shazam - amazing iPhone App

August 15th, 2008 : Jess Louwagie

With the sea of iPhone apps that are being downloaded I recently discovered one that I had to write about. Its free, and a must have for musicheads.

Its called Shazam

Surely there have been countless times you have been in a store, a bar, listening to the radio or watching a movie and wished you could identify the artist or name of a song playing. Shazam will listen for 3-12 seconds (you can set the duration) and identify it for you - song title, album, artist, label, genre and even show you an album cover. You can then preview/purchase the song from iTunes, or send to a friend.

Its a truly amazing and very handy little app to have. Find it through the App Store on your iPhone or from iTunes here
