AOL Music Launches PLAY iPhone App

PLAY is a new iPhone application by AOL Music that lets you share musical moments with friends and discover great new music. PLAY is the premier music application of the year, says AOL.

AOL believes “Music brings out something special in all of us, it triggers long forgotten memories and creates new ones that will last a lifetime.”

“Sharing those memories is something that we all love to do, especially with friends, and over 400,000 users agree!”, according to the American global Internet services and media company.

PLAY allows users to listen to their own music on their device, as well as stream SHOUTcast radio, CD Listening Party, MP3 of the day, and more.

Everything is free, as is the application itself. AOL notes the following key features:

· Listen to your music in a beautiful custom music player
· Play music from an extensive collection of free songs and CD's updated regularly
· Access to over 47,000 SHOUTcast radio stations
· Share your musical experiences with friends and followers
· Find and follow friends using the app through Facebook, Twitter, or Searching
· Add your own album art to your shares
· Share your musical experiences on Facebook and Twitter
· Listen to previews of your friends music posts and buy songs you like on iTunes
· Comment on and like your friends shares, you can tag friends in comments too! Just @username your friends and they'll get an alert
· Get notifications when a friend follows, likes or leaves you a comment

AOL Music is dying for some feedback, so go ahead and give their app a spin. Those who “absolutely love” the PLAY experience are encouraged to rate the app and leave a comment on the App Store.

Immediately available from the Music category in Apple’s App Store, PLAY by AOL Music is compatible with any iPhone or iPod touch running iOS 4.0 or higher. The original iPhone and iPod touch are not supported.
