Music WithMe, a mobile app that facilitates music discovery through social sharing, has integrated their platform by allowing users of their Android app to follow people who share music from multiple platforms. The app now supports Last.fm, Pandora Radio, Rdio, and Soundtracking (for iPhone). It also integrates AmazonMP3.com, making the purchase of music suggested by friends easier.
Purchased music is automatically synced from the Android device back to the user’s iTunes library, eliminating the need to specify a download from their cloud locker when they return to their computer - since the music will already be waiting for them in iTunes.
The app has already proven to work well amongst its users. They have been shown to possess nearly five times the digital download purchases than the average user. This is based on a Reuters study that showed that only 3% of the music stored in the average iTunes user's digital library was purchased from the Apple music store. The rest came from ripped CDs, friends, or downloaded illegally.
