Today, we’re releasing Twitter #music, a new service that will change the way people find music, based on Twitter. It uses Twitter activity, including Tweets and engagement, to detect and surface the most popular tracks and emerging artists. It also brings artists’ music-related Twitter activity front and center: go to their profiles to see which music artists they follow and listen to songs by those artists. And, of course, you can tweet songs right from the app. The songs on Twitter #music currently come from three sources: iTunes, Spotify or Rdio.

By default, you will hear previews from iTunes when exploring music in the app. Subscribers to Rdio and Spotify can log in to their accounts to enjoy full tracks that are available in those respective catalogs. We will continue to explore and add other music service providers. Musique online: le site Beezik ferme volontairement ses portes. YouTube to launch music streaming service, take on Spotify. By Ryan Bradley and Jessi Hempel FORTUNE -- YouTube, the world's largest digital repository of streaming media, will launch a subscription music service later this year. The service has its own negotiating team and operating unit but will likely have some overlap with new features also rumored to be coming to Google's Android music platform, Google Play.

The two new services are defined by their respective places in the Google (GOOG) empire: Google Play for Android is a digital locker for music -- users buy, store, and sort a collection of tracks; but on YouTube's coming service, anyone can listen to tracks for free. Both services are said to be adding a subscription fee that will unlock additional features. Fortune was briefed on the service by sources in the record industry and at Google who declined to be named.

YouTube is already one of the most heavily used music services in the world, but it hasn't yet charged users. MORE: Yes, Apple has $137.1 billion in liquid assets. YouTube. iPad, Android : Shazam s’ouvre à la découverte musicale. Shazam a décidé de mettre en avant la découverte musicale. À l’occasion du seuil des 300 millions d’utilisateurs franchi, le service qui débusque les informations sur un titre entendu à la radio ou chez un ami rien qu’en l’« écoutant » a dévoilé de nouvelles fonctionnalités pour l’application iPad et Android.

Ces nouveautés, qui seront disponibles dans les prochaines semaines, tournent autour du réseautage musical. La page d’accueil du logiciel a ainsi été revue pour afficher les titres et émissions TV que tous les utilisateurs de Shazam sont actuellement en train de tagguer. Des classements seront également consultables. Une carte interactive permettra de connaître les morceaux les plus populaires dans son coin de monde ou son village. La fonction Shazam Friends va aussi s’améliorer, pour offrir de nouvelles manières de découvrir la musique préférée de ses contacts (des aperçus pourront être écoutés et les tags commentés). Androidauthority. Google owns YouTube, the largest video streaming site in the world by a huge margin, and Play Music, the service that lets users download songs from a catalog of over 13 million of tracks.

It makes perfect sense for the tech giant to move into the music streaming business, and, according to the Financial Times, that is precisely what Google is doing. The move will put Google in competition with established music streaming services like Pandora and Spotify. When Apple was rumored to weigh in an entry in the sector, Pandora’s stock tanked, so I am wondering how the markets will react at the news of Google getting into streaming.

Larry Page’s company has a reputation of offering free or cheap services, which would put even more pressure on a competitive and notoriously difficult industry. As The Next Web notes, Google already announced plans to roll out paid subscriptions on YouTube. From there, the move to paid music subscriptions is logical and quite reasonable to envisage. Google Said in Talks to Invest $50 Million in Vevo Site. Google Inc.’s YouTube is negotiating a $50 million equity investment in music video service Vevo LLC, according to two people with knowledge of the situation. Google would own less than 10 percent of the company, giving Vevo a valuation of at least $500 million, said the people, who asked for anonymity because negotiations are still early and an agreement may not be reached.

The investment would be part of a broader contract to keep Vevo’s music videos on YouTube, the people said. Vevo, formed in 2009 by Vivendi SA’s Universal Music and Sony Corp.’s Sony Music Entertainment, and Google last year extended their existing contract until April. “While we don’t comment on individual negotiations, we always hope to renew our relationships with valuable partners so we can continue to provide YouTube users with the best possible music experience,” Chris Dale, spokesman for Google, said in an e-mailed statement. Jennifer Press, a spokeswoman for Vevo in New York, declined to comment. Lab: startup & apps developers competition.
