Name that tune in one text message

Music-recognition service Shazam has launched a subscription-based mobile and online music service, the Ultimate Music Discovery Engine, according to PC Advisor.

"The service extends the company's existing mobile offering by adding online features and mobile-phone shopping. In essence the service lets users identify any music they are interested in simply by dialling a number (2580) on their mobile phone and pointing it at any loud sound source.

Intelligent software then matches the fingerprint of the audio to a 3.5-million track database, despatching the results to the end user by SMS."
