Cingular Aims to Name That Tune

Can't name that tune? Cingular has introduced a new service that will help its users do just that -- by identifying the song for them. Announced Monday and called MusicID, the service uses the cellular voice network to listen to a recorded song and identify it based on what it hears.

The service is a collaboration between Cingular and London-based Shazam Entzertainment , the creator of the MusicID technology. [via Beta News]
