Twitter has finally launched it’s long rumored music service, #music. Popular tracks and emerging artists are all featured in separate categories and music discovery is done by what artists you follow, what music your followers are talking about, and artists that Twitter believes are emerging.
Preview clips of tracks can be played via the webapp or mobile app (iPhone only at the moment), which are sourced through iTunes (with the option to buy the full track), and users with Rdio and/or Spotify accounts can play full tracks.
The Android app is missing at the moment, but Twitter does have plans to bring an app to the play store, as well as expand the service beyond the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.
