BlogMusik.net - Music on Demand

Blogmusik is a virtual juke box. It allows you to find and discover new music as it creates playlists for you based on a song you select. With each song, you can check out more information on the album and artist it comes from. You can also rate it, and if you don´t want to hear it again, you can tell the site to you dislike it to keep it from popping up in future playlists. If you like the tune, but aren´t in the mood for it at the time, you can skip on to the next. With each new song in the playlist, an image of the album cover is added to the background of the virtual juke box. If you´ve enjoyed a song and want to add it to future playlists, you can drag and drop it into the side panel to use later. You can also purchase the songs you like via Amazon and iTunes. You don´t need to be registered to enjoy the free stream of music, but if you want more control over your playlists and want to save them for later, logging in takes two seconds. From the songs I typed in, the list of artists and songs I listened to were well related and introduced me to some new artists.

“Join us to create your own playlists and upload your creations.”

People can easily discover new music and keep track of their discoveries by registering, and if they really enjoy the music, they´ll purchase the songs, which brings a profit to the site. The virtual juke box is well designed, is pleasant to look at, and is successful in choosing related artists for you to enjoy, so people will stay on the site to check out what´s up next while they continue browsing the web. They also have a firefox tool that lets you easily add new artists to your playlists.

How will they compete with the over crowded music discovery and streaming sites out there?
