Plug.dj Adds Video to the Turntable.fm Concept, But Will Anybody Care?

What an original idea: A bunch of rooms where cute little avatars can DJ music to each other! That’s what we said last May, before breaking the news (we think) about Turntable.fm, after surprising its cofounder Billy Chasen with a call to his cellphone. If you’ve tried the social DJ web or iOS app Turntable.fm,…

Surprise, Surprise: Google Plans Wireless Music for the Home

Just yesterday, we posted a widely-disseminated guide to zapping music from Android smartphones and tablets to Apple AirPlay devices. Why? Because Google has been slacking on its wireless Fling technology, leaving Apple to eat its wireless music lunch. As we put it yesterday, “Google should be worried. This is how people develop a taste for…

Google: Your New Indie Record Store Clerk?

Google announced a neat addition to its still relatively shiny and new music store on Thursday: a special spotlight on the best independent bands, as judged by Google’s in-house editorial staff as well as by traffic to those bands’ pages within the music store. Yes, in case you missed it, Google has its own music blog,…

SOPA/PIPA Blackout -The Collaborative Spotify Playlist

By now, you’ve probably heard about SOPA, PIPA, and the controversies surrounding these proposed, well-meaning legislations, which threaten the end-to-end nature of the internet in the name of copyright (if not, here’s what you need to know). Because you’re on the internet right now, you may have noticed that the English version of Wikipedia is totally blacked…

In 2011, we said goodbye to Evolver.fm's old, black-background design, launched a directory of music apps, and posted these stories and many others.

Evolver.fm’s Top 5 Most-Read Stories of 2011

This was the first full year of Evolver.fm, which we recently redesigned with a new, cleaner look, and the world’s first cross-platform directory of music apps with categories, reviews, videos, and more. To celebrate, we figured we’d take a look at Evolver.fm’s top five stories of 2011, as chosen by our readers. (Note: This doesn’t…

This photo depicts RightsFlow's 2010 holiday party; this year's will likely be jollier still, thanks to the company's recent acquisition by Google.

Google Buys RightsFlow for Music on YouTube

Google announced on Friday that it has purchased the music licensing company RightsFlow for its detailed information about who should get paid when any of over 30 million songs get played. Neither Google nor Rightsflow would comment on the deal beyond their official statements, but we have pieced together some of the reasons Google would…

Google Music in a Nutshell

Did you miss the live webcast announcement of Google Music? Forget about the live blogs — they never read properly after the fact.

Why Would Google Sell Music? 4 Big Reasons

Google will announce a music service this afternoon in Los Angeles. Evolver.fm won’t make good on our invite, but instead plan to watch a private webcast of the announcement, which appears to be a rather poorly-kept secret. According to Bloomberg and others, Google’s music store will do the same thing Amazon and iTunes do: sell individual…

Cull TV Isn’t the First to Turn YouTube into ‘New Music Television,’ But It’s Pretty Neat

Google’s generous policy towards its YouTube API (application programming interface) lets app developers build all kinds of neat music apps out of the music videos found there. Most recently, we came across Cull TV at a recent NYC MusicTechnology meetup. It’s something like the 50th app we’ve seen to date that applies a filter to YouTube…

The New Big 3 in Personal Computing: Amazon, Apple and Google

In this era of apps and clouds, the old Apple vs. Microsoft dichotomy is giving way to a superpower triumvirate: Amazon, Apple, and Google. Only these combine hardware, media, apps, and cloud storage — and connect them for consumers — as personal computing becomes a layer spread throughout our lives, rather than a discrete sector. Specifically, these…

2011: When Google Went Gaga for Music

Back in June, Google was said to be launching a music store possibly by this fall. Now that it’s fall, Google has reportedly been telling labels that its music store, and possibly subscription service (not to be confused with Google Music Beta locker), will launch by the end of 2011. This would constitute the third in a string of music announcements…
