On reflection, I think I’m just angry about the advertising being put into the app. Given that it’s still the only song recogniser that works even half the time I would probably pay a dollar or two just to get rid of those ads.

I find the whole concept of advertising in free apps despicable and dishonest. Either it’s free or it’s not. “Free with ads” is not free, it’s just a different way of paying for the app. I’d rather have the option to use that “money” stuff and pay for it honestly. :-)

Example: if you remember you were at X restaurant when you heard that awesome song that you can’t remember, you just need to remember the restaurant (which is easier to remember vs. the song which was new), and Shazam: you can then figure out what that awesome song was.

I always remember I was at Delfina’s when I discovered Outkast. But knew NOTHING about Outkast at the time; Delfina’s was a lot easier to remember.

At least, that’s how my brain works :-p

Why would I care *where* I was when I discovered a song? (or anyone else for that matter?) Why would I want to share that info with anyone? Why would I want to tweet about it?

I find people who tweet about useless mundane stuff like that are the first one’s I block off my list. With so many people tweeting about so many things, I find that the tweet has to be interesting or useful in some way or it’s just not worth it. A million tweets that are essentially “cool song” and a link to purchase it just sounds annoying to me.
