Apple to buy music recognizing app Shazam
Apple
New York - Egypt Today
Apple is in talks to buy the popular song recognition app Shazam as the tech giant tries to compete with streaming leader Spotify, TechCrunch reported Friday.
The technology news site, quoting unnamed sources, said that the deal could be announced Monday with financial terms not yet clear.
A spokeswoman for Apple declined comment.
Since its founding in 1999, Shazam has offered a high-tech solution to listeners' longtime agony over not recognizing music on the radio or in bars, letting users identify songs through their phones' microphones.
Shazam, which is based in London, said last year that it had reached one billion downloads on smartphones.
