iPhone Ocarina App by Smule = AMAZING!

This music app happens to be a few months old, but that doesn’t change the fact that the company who made it is amazing. Smule is coming out with another iPhone app entitled “Leaf Trombone” later on this year. Ocarina for the Iphone reminds me of the good old days of chilling and playing Zelda for n64, while drinking a coke. I think i might have to start re-living those days again! Keep an eye on Smule for all the bet music apps on the iPhone.


MySpace Music Vs. Apple iPod

Naww, we aren’t for real yet. For now, this is just a RUMOR. But we’ve heard rumors like this before, and they usually end of happening. When faced with the question, MySpace CEO Chris DeWolfe said, such a device “could be possible.” He added, that right now they are just working on the music service, which if anything is helping iTunes and iPod.

In my personal opinion, companies should stick to what they are good at. I think MySpace is excellent at bringing people together around music and Apple is the best at portable music devices. Don’t compete, become partners!!
