Can I Get An Encore?

Shazam Entertainment recently announced a new application now available in the App Store. Technically it’s not a new app, but more of a method to actually make money off of the current app. For those of you living under a rock, Shazam provides music tagging with the use of the microphone on the iPhone. The previously free version provided unlimited tagging, and the ability to posts tags on Twitter and Facebook. With the new paid version, you get that same goodness as above, but with quicker tagging speeds along, the ability to search, and a top ten tagged songs buy users. The new free version will no longer provide unlimited tagging. It will now only allow 5 tagged songs per month. Yeah very lame. For those of you with the current version, Shazam says that when you update you will continue to have the unlimited tags. Just prepare for reduced speeds in tagging sounds. Preference will be given to the paying users, in the bandwidth department. So get ready to pony up $4.99, Shazam Encore is available now in the App Store.
