Shazam today announced the launch of its mobile application for the Android platform that allows users to discover music that can immediately be purchased through the Amazon MP3 store and connect with artists through MySpace. Android users will be able to quickly and easily enhance their music collections while taking advantage of social networking integration with MySpace to get the most out of their latest music discovery.



Shazam allows anyone with a mobile phone to identify music by holding the phone towards an unknown song. The Shazam technology recognizes the song and provides the user with information about the track, artists and album.

When a Shazam user discovers a new song, they can choose to purchase the digital track immediately from the Amazon MP3 store. They can also tag a song to get more information about the artist, automatically connect to their MySpace page, and friend them to complete the experience. All of this activity takes place on the Android-powered device.
