Tubeify

Although Tubeify is still a relatively new company, it has already generated a lot of buzz around the web because of its innovative combination of Billboard, Last.fm, and YouTube. The website is founded by Tomas Isdal, who is a PhD student from the University of Washington. Currently, Tubeify is an invite-only service, but many expect it to be open to the public as soon as the infrastructure is in place.

Now, you may wonder, why use Tubeify when you can just go to YouTube? Well, it’s simple. This company provides on-demand service and streams your favorite music continuously. Some even call it the “better YouTube” for music-lovers. The company also uses the technology provided by Billboard. Essentially, current tracks can play without stopping as you search for more songs. There’s also no need to jump from one window to another.

If you still need more convincing, Tubeify actually has a “lazy” playlist. It is  basically created from your search results. The songs you compile can be shared to various social networks. At this stage though, this function has yet to be fully-operational. Improvements are still being made on the site but once it is launched to the public, you can definitely expect a top-quality music service that will make you forget all other music sites.

Tubeify clearly has a lot going for it. With some of the best music streaming services getting sued left and right, there’s room for a service like this.
