Yeah okay but how do you discover new music?
Shazam what I hear around me and like. Often it's just bus drivers listening to music, and since I sit in the front if possible, I can discover music. Or just radio, whether it's FM, DAB+ or internet. AM is usually limited to news and bazillion chinese stations.
Haha so many times I've heard stuff playing that sounds catchy in like random sandwich shops, and hunt down where I can get a clear detection on it.
It's actually pretty impressive what the average smartphone mic can pick up ... For better and worse. =\
But I've found some favorite songs that way. It beats the old days of trying really hard to discern some words in the lyrics and hoping a search engine would help!
I'm impressed with my pixel's ability to do it. I forget it's on sometimes and I'll walk in a pub. Having only been inside 5 seconds and my phone in my pocket the whole time, it already has the song playing on display on the lock screen. Its almost like it works better when the volume is lower. I have a harder time detecting music with it if I turn the volume up or hold it near a speaker. Put it my pocket and have 30 people talk over it? Probably has a 95%+ successful detection rate in those conditions
you should swap Shazam for the open source "Audile" :
