Groovefish - a Windows phone exclusive!

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Perhaps you’ve heard of Grooveshark, and if not, you need to check it out on your PC!

A developer over at XDA-Developers has created an app called Groovefish which is built upon Grooveshark, and (right now, anyway), this is the only app that does this!

So, now is the time to install Groovefish and walk up to all your iPhone and Blackberry friends and say, “Hey, can you do this?  Pick a song, any song!!” and you can play it for them!

If you are wondering if this is a legit way to listen to tunes, read up on it over at Grooveshark.  They’ve got a business model built around all this.

Wunder Radio on Windows Mobile

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Wunder Radio became available to users of Windows Mobile phones just last week. The service provides access to nearly 36,000 radio stations delivered by Radio Time. With this app, you can access over 400 different genres including music, talk, sports, entertainment, and more. In addition to providing streaming radio services, the application can also help you tune into local stations with ease. By using your phone’s GPS capabilities, Wunder Radio can generate a list of all the local stations in your area, which you could then save for later access.

The Windows Mobile application features a today screen plugin which lets you view “now playing” program and song information and lets you select from your favorite presets all from your phone’s main screen with no need to open the app itself.

The only drawback (for some) regarding the Wunder Radio app may be its price. After the currently running 30-day promotion ends, the app will be sold for $14.99 (it’s $10 now). So although mobile apps like Pandora can’t compete when it comes to sheer quantity of stations available (that’s also not quite what they do), the price for Pandora (free) may make it still seem like a winner.

Stream Your Music Library to Your Windows Mobile Phone

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

Didiom has just released new software for Windows Mobile users that lets you stream your PC’s music collection over the internet to your phone. The software lets you stream MP3 tracks stored on your computer to over 200 phone models, for free.

In addition to streaming, Didiom offers a marketplace where you can shop for music from a selection of over 1 million songs, also available in MP3 format. What’s different about their service is that it lets you name your own price when purchasing the songs. After buying, tracks can be downloaded to both phone and PC. You can also share music previews with friends, either via email or from cell phone to cell phone.

There are no extra fees to use Didiom – the service is completely free (at least for now)…but make sure you have a data plan with your wireless carrier before using.
