The 5 Best Music Apps For Your Android Device

By

Your Android device is a great mp3 player, and using some of the amazing apps out there, it can be much more than that. You can access Grooveshark, stream your own music collection from your computer anywhere over the Internet, tune into radio stations worldwide, identify and get lyrics to any song that is playing, and keep track of tour dates of your favorite bands. There is an app to make each of these things happen.

TinyShark

TinyShark is a Grooveshark app for Android. You can search for your favorite music, discover popular songs, queue tunes, and create playlists. This simple app puts the world of music at your fingertips wherever you can access the Internet.

AudioGalaxy

With AudioGalaxy you can stream music from your computer to your Android device over the Internet for free – and the good features don’t end there. You can create playlists both through the app and the web client. When your present playlist runs out of songs, the AudioGalaxy Genie can play matching songs.
Finally, you can scrobble your plays to Last.fm, provided your account is linked from your settings page on the AudioGalaxy homepage.

Before you can stream songs to your mobile, you need to set up AudioGalaxy Helper on your computer. Once your music collection has been indexed, you can stream it to your Android device via AudioGalaxy’s servers. If you need some visuals to guide you through the process, please refer to this article: Effortlessly Stream Your Entire Music Collection From A PC Or Mac.

TuneIn

TuneIn is your portal to thousands of online radio stations worldwide. I use it to listen to my favorite station back in Berlin to catch up on news from home every morning. Apart from music, you can also tune into local events, talk shows, and simply discover something new.

SoundHound

SoundHound is one of two major music recognition apps for Android. Personally, I prefer it over Shazam due to its functionality and features. Both do a great job at recognizing songs. SoundHound, however, has the nicer interface, provides song lyrics (if available), artist tour dates (if available), list of matching YouTube videos (access via browser) and similar artists. All of this information is provided inside the app, rather than having to open a browser.

GigBeat

Do you love concerts? Then you must put GigBeat onto your Android! The app scans the music on your device or syncs artists from Last.FM or Songkick to show you when your favorite artists are on tour. You can view tour dates based on artists, events, and location. You can also set to be notified of upcoming events or newly added tour dates.

Ipad 2 Accesories

By
Zagg have done it again and released what we are excited to say is the seasons MUST HAVE iPad accessory: The  ZAGGmate iPad case with keyboard . It’s not often that we get entirely blown away by an accessory for the iPad, but this one has left us shell shocked and in awe. The perfect compliment to your iPad, this is the first iPad keyboard case combo that we have seen yet that has done it right. In fact, it’s the best bluetooth keyboard we’ve seen to date as well! It’s so right and so perfect that we already wonder how we ever used our iPad without it! Check out the review below… ZAGGmate with Keyboard The iPad’s New Best Friend Our first impression of the ZAGGmate was: “Where’s the rest of it?” This iPad case is unlike anything else we’ve seen on the market to date and the designers at Zagg worked hard to literally rethink what an iPad case could be. This is an iPad case that doesn’t cover the whole iPad, but rather just covers the iPad’s screen, and leaves the back of the tablet...

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review

By
Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review Skyfire for the iPad made headlines when it was first released, due to its ability to play Flash videos on a device previously void of this popular technology. Users flocked to the App Store, eager to drop five bucks for the chance to view their favorite clips, shows, and movies on their iPad. Not only did the browser play these videos, but the integrated video compression saved a significant amount of bandwidth for people on a restricted data plan. The initial excitement wore off quickly, though, as complaints were rampant about many sites not playing videos as expected. Since its inception Skyfire has certainly improved in this area, now claiming support for over 200,000 websites containing Flash. The dissenters will always be there as not every Flash video on the Web will be playable, even if the developers at Skype Labs remain diligent. Some of the backlash is warranted to a certain extent. If I paid $4.99 with the intent of viewi...
