music identification software

**dodge** · 03-12-2011, 01:36 AM

There seems to be loads of freeware out there for OSX but can anyone recommend one for me? I'm after one that has the option to identify music being played on the laptop with no need for a microphone (obviously internet connection will be required.

Thanks in advance

shazam and soundhound on iOS...? thats all i know of/use

spose it all depends on what sort of music you're trying to identify.

Just tried out Soundhoud - man that's cool. Does figure out quite a lot....can't believe I have had my iPhone for like half a year or so without ever testing this.

Sorry for late reply. I cant seem to install shazam and soundhound seems to be iphone only with apple products. I want it for my laptop so say i play something on the internet my laptop can identify. I dont have an iphone even tho I have an apple laptop... guess Im one of the odd ones out when it comes to apple products! Gimme a nokia any day!

thanks for any help
