Instant Concerts from EMI

We live in a wonderful time, with the internet and digital media formats our favorite recordings and movies can be beamed to our homes at a moments notice.  However, we have to wait sometime after the recording in a studio, at a concert, or filming of a movie to enjoy it in our homes.

Discover Great Music on YouTube with TubeRadio.fm

If you are a music lover who enjoys watching music videos from YouTube, then there is a new online interface that you need to check out. TubeRadio.fm has a solution that provides an easy to use FREE interface to locate music, create, and share playlists.

Laid out similar to iTunes and working in the same manner as iTunes and Real Player, the interface allows for your favorite music to be searched and played. Upon typing in an artist’s name, a list of all the tracks available on YouTube appears. From there tracks can be played and added to playlists, a free login can be created that stores the playlist information.

Playing back and saving to playlists is only the beginning, play whole albums via discography, purchase albums via download from 7Digital or CDs from Amazon, and share your playlists via Twitter, Facebook, email, and more.  Here is a playlist that I created for Stevie Ray Vaughan.
While the interface has some quirks, it is a very useful and fun way to enjoy music from YouTube. I recommend taking it for a spin and see for yourself.
