So let’s say you’re in your car riding to the movie theater to see the next “Step Up” film, and you’re listening to your favorite radio station (that is, if you don’t already have an iPod plug-in for listening to your very own playlist!). Everything’s cool, the breeze is blowing, you got the air conditioning running, the window’s slightly open, your shades are on….

And then the radio station plays this awesome song! There’s one problem, though: you don’t know the name of the song, or who the song is from! And don’t you just hate it when the DJ doesn’t even bother to mention the name of the song or the singer or band?

Nowadays you can purchase songs right from your phone if you have an internet connection. If not, you go right to the computer or laptop and get it right there! It’s a piece of cake. But if you don’t know the song and you love it, you’ll never see it in your own playlist, you’ll never play it on your iPod or MP3 player. Ever.

There is a savior to your situation, though! It’s called Content Recognition Software. Look it up on softwareindustry.org for more information. It’s the real thing!

The software acts like fingerprint technology. You can actually put your phone close to any speaker playing any song, tap into your Content Recognition Software on the phone, and the technology will instantly pull up all the information you need! — artist, title, even a link to buy the song immediately.

How’s that for convenience?
