Contagious covers the launch of EMI's tuneglue-audiomap:
Too busy to spend hours wandering record stores? EMI Records is launching an online music mapping service to predict and provide the songs that listeners desire. Called tuneglue-audiomap, the program analyses listening preferences and profiles of other music fans to predict which tracks are most likely to be bought by a given user.Using data taken from online music destination Last.fm, the program effectively creates a user-generated music map incorporating consumers, retailers, and recommended artists, allowing music fans access to a wealth of tailored info. The map includes a visually appealing network where artists are represented by expandable nodes. Though any artist may potentially be recommended, additional functionality such as site links, artist biographies and competitions guarantees EMI artists an edge.
