Thanks for the review. And nice choice with Helium. If you haven't been following her much, her more recent stuff sounds closer to her older Helium stuff (instead of the unicorn and fairy and maypole stuff she was doing in the middle).

Verizon's V CAST Song ID is exactly like Shazam, but you can buy it from Verizon to get it on your phone. Sweet.

Shazam is totally awesome. I find that it doesn't only if background noise is really excessive, then it's understandable.
for me though, it works 99% of the time, even with what I thought would be obscure tracks.

Nice review! I have the iPhone version of Shazam and most of the time it's working perfect, although interference from background noises is a big problem just like you said in the video.
