imeem makes Android sing with new app

December 23, 2022 By Dennis Bouchand

Social music site imeem has launched imeem for Android, a new application that brings free streaming music and personalized radio to T-Mobile’s G1 with Google. The application will be available as a free download through the phone via the Android Market.

imeem for Android helps people easily discover music that matches their tastes. The application enables users to create custom Internet radio stations by searching for specific artists, discover new music through personalized recommendations and listen to the most popular artists in the imeem community. The application also gives people the ability to purchase DRM-free downloads by linking to the Amazon MP3 application on Android.

imeem for Android seamlessly integrates with features on imeem.com. The music people listen to on the go will influence the recommendations they receive on imeem.com, and vice versa.

If users discover new artists while listening to imeem for Android, they can “favorite” those artists and automatically become fans on imeem. Similarly, if they become a fan of an artist on imeem, a station for that artist will automatically be available to them through imeem for Android. A user can also find a record of their mobile listening history by logging in to their imeem account, where all those songs are available for free on-demand streaming.
