Powerful music tool for the mobile

 

The award-winning MyStrands Social Player is a music player that lets you discover new music, connect with people, and share your tastes with friends. In this latest version 3.1, it now also supports scrobbling to Last.fm!

It automatically shows cover art, provides artist and song recommendations from over 6 million songs featuring free previews, and fully integrates with a social network of music enthusiasts.

The innovative “Who’s Listening” feature lets you discover like-minded people who like listening to the same songs you are playing. You can send messages, discuss up and coming artists, see the listening histories of other users, and keep an ear on what’s hot.

The MyStrands Social Player won the Mobile Rules 2008 awards for the best multimedia application!!

MyStrands is a free (absolutely free—no strings attached!) desktop application that lets you get more connection from your digital music: more music, more friends, and especially more fun! Find friends through music in the MyStrands community. Throw parties and entertain your friends with music, messages, and pictures through partyStrands, the newest MyStrands feature. Tag music, create playlists, and of course, get instant recommendations with other MyStrands features.
