Music discovery service,Shazam says that since September 2008, Shazam has grown from 20 million
users to 35 million worldwide, with over a million tracks now being
tagged every day across the world.
Shazam,
already deployed by 75 carriers across 60 countries, was recently voted
as the Best App Ever for 2008 on the iPhone (downloadable from the
Apple App Store), and was also one of the most popular applications on
the day that the Android Market launched.
Andrew Fisher, Shazam's CEO said: "Shazam has become a worldwide
phenomenon and we have made significant progress in making music
recognition ubiquitous on mobile phones. With consumers tagging an
average of ten tracks a month, we're confident that this exponential
growth of end-user adoption will continue throughout 2009 with an
anticipated 50 million Shazamers before the end of the year."
