Beats Music
Despite the crowded ecosystem of Internet music streaming services, it seems no company wants to go out of business. Even more so if you participate in music through other of your products. This is the case of Beats, which has just launched Beats Music, offering to enjoy songs on any time and place through a multiplatform application Of course, a service that for now is only available through iPhone and iPad, but not yet in Spain
This is a music service over the Internet. An alternative to Spotify or Google Play Music, but looking to distance itself from these thanks to its customization . And it is that Beats Music has its own distinctive touch, focused on knowledge of the user's tastes , but also in your situation, emotions and feelings of the moment to offer you the appropriate music. All this summed up in a simple phrase in which to express all these issues.
The operation of Beats Music is simple, very similar to what is seen in other services. However, as soon as it starts for the first time, and after creating a user account, it presents a screen full of bubbles to indicate the user's tastes.These are different musical genres, which the user can qualify as likes with just one click on them, love it if you double press, or make them disappear with a long press It is also possible to make a first preselection of favorite artists to start using the application. With this, Beats Music already knows something more about the user. A useful point to present new music but similar to your tastes.
From this moment the user can move through the different sections of the application to start listening to music. Either with playlists created by the user himself or by experts in the field and that collect themes around a specific style or concept, or directly the user's favorite music. But what is surprising about Beats Music is the section Just for you (just for you) .Here all the knowledge about the user and the functions that seek to act as an intermediary between him and the music he wants to listen to are displayed.
In addition to music related or akin to tastes, the user can scroll to different subsections such as The Sentence (the phrase). A curious utility that allows you to generate up to a million different phrases that indicate the location the mood and what you are going to do or with whom to find music that goes with it all. A phrase like “I'm on the computer, wanting to party, with my friend X to rock and roll” (for example) that can also be shared on social networks so that other users can enjoy it and know the related music. Other of these subsections have recommendations generated by experts, being able to search for the most appropriate at each moment.
In short, one more alternative to the crowded field of music playback over the Internet, although clearly seeking to gain a foothold through attractive and useful functions for the user. Beats Music has started its journey today through the iPhone app, although it still It is not available in the Spanish market. It is planned to be a multiplatform service, also being developed on Android, Windows Phone and on the web . At the moment it is only known that its price is 10 dollars, so the conversion to euros will not be far off.
