MOG, the on-demand music listening service, today announced officially the availability of a mobile streaming application for handsets running under Google's Android operating system, as well as for Apple's iPhone device. According to the company, the MOG application can be downloaded for free from the Android Market or from the Apple App Store, and comes with a free three-day trial with no sign-up or credit card required.

However, users interested in benefiting from the service past the third day should subscribe for it, for $9.99 per month. The solution comes with access to a number of over 8 million songs and provides unlimited listening and all-you-can-eat downloads. Not to mention that users would benefit from MOG’s desktop service, which is available for access from any desktop PC or browser. The new MOG service is the first of the kind to enables Android and iPhone users download any song or album straight to their mobile phone for a low monthly fee.

Among the features of the new MOG Mobile application, we can count: - On-demand streaming: Unlimited listening to any artist, album, or song at any time. - MOG Radio: Only MOG offers the patent-pending “MOG Mobius” music discovery engine, which enables users to control the mix of similar artists, from true "artist only" radio up to a full mix of similar artists. - Playlist access between website and mobile: Make playlists on MOG.com and access them on your phone. Favorite tracks that are bookmarked from the web are then integrated into a user’s personal library and appear in favorites on the mobile app. - High quality audio: Songs can be downloaded at the standard rate of 64 kbps or users can turn on HQ downloads (up to 320 kbps) to save the song as a larger file with higher audio quality. This gives listeners the option of receiving high quality downloads for maximum audio fidelity. - Multi-tasking: Android users can continue to play music with MOG while using other applications. In the coming weeks, MOG will add multi-tasking for iOS 4 users.

According to MOG, its service is the first ever to provide true “artist-only” radio stations to users of mobile phones. Not only does it enable users to listen to continuous, uninterrupted music from their preferred artists for as long as they like, but they are also offered the possibility to easily discover new artists through the players unique slider control. The “MOG Mobius” patent-pending music discovery engine powers the slider, the company concluded. A few more details on what MOG for Android and iPhone is all about can be found on the video below.
