My Music Playlist at Imeem

July21

Admit it, internship can be an boring affair. Sometimes they just let you sit for the whole day doing nothing. Sure Facebook helps. And so does MSN. Still, I miss my music collection.

Thanks to Imeem: Not only I could listen the song I have in my desktop but also tap to one of the largest music library on the internet… free of charge (legally). Just like any web 2.0 project, it is Imeem’s users that actually upload the music to Imeem. Remarkable indeed.

And yes… it is legal as Imeem has made some kind of pact with WMG.

I am incredibly happy to report that we have reached a deal with Warner Music Group that allows us to stream the full length versions of Warner music and video to imeem members in the United States.

While the legality of listening to imeem is not exactly covering members in this little island, I am sure it does not matter so much in this age of internet. At least people like me who are not really included in the deal can have some sort of a piece of mind, knowing that the artist will be paid somehow.

We at IMEEM are doing our best to build a cool website that’s fun for you as well as makes sure artists GET PAID. I hope you guys are all as excited as I am to have this great content up on the site.

As I could get access to many (literally many many many) music files using Imeem, I started this hobby: creating playlist which is super easy since I do not need to upload anything. My playlists contain mostly songs that I love to hear… with few exceptions. My playlist can be found here.

    more tie-ins with major labels would mean less 30-sec previews, something which you’ll get to know in due time~ :)
