UK  
based digital media company **[7digital](http://www.7digital.com/?ref=hypebot.com)**  
has just released the latest version of their Android application, **making it easier**  
**for users to discover and share** new artists and albums. Among several notable upgrades, the  
app allows users to access 7digital’s entire catalogue of 20 million digital  
music tracks – acting as an **all-in-one music player and store** that syncs new  
and previously purchased tracks stored in their 7digital locker.

  
The  
company says that these new features are designed to improve music discovery  
and the listening experience across the app. These include artist pages that now come with  
complete biographies, which include genre tags and links to similar artists for  
enhanced music discovery. Also, the full screen player now allows users to  
create playlists, view more details about an album or artist, and share track  
links through email, Facebook, Twitter or other apps direct from the player. A  
new player bar has also been added to the app, making it easier to listen to  
music, browse and preview new tracks and albums at the same time.

“Our customers are  
increasingly discovering and purchasing music on mobile, over 44% of our sales  
last year were through mobile devices,” said 7digital CEO, Ben Drury. “This  
update allows music fans to easily share tracks and albums from their mobile  
device, and discover new or similar artists based on their existing music  
collection.”

This  
update comes as [7digital expands their North American operation](https://www.hypebot.com/7digital-expands-us-team-with-key-hires-from-emusic-apple-ioda-rightsflow/) with a number  
of key new hires including personnel formerly of eMusic, Apple, Pandora, Sprint,  
and IODA Distribution. The company now has U.S. offices in San Francisco, Los  
Angeles, and New York.

The  
new 7digital app is available now for free to Android smartphone and tablet  
users and can be downloaded from the [Android Market](https://market.android.com/details?id=uk.co.sevendigital.android&ref=hypebot.com), GetJar and the Amazon Appstore.
