A few months ago web-based music search engine and streaming media service SeeqPod dropped a hint that the company was working with Microsoft on... something. Now UK paper Telegraph is reporting that Microsoft is planning to launch a streaming music service similar to Spotify, Pandora, or Last.fm. Microsoft could launch the service by the end of July. Users would be able to either stream songs ...

There's a rumor going around that Microsoft could be preparing to purchase music search engine SeeqPod, or at least acquire some of the company's technology. Now where did this crazy rumor come from? SeeqPod. If you go to the site right now, which is for the most part shut down, and hover your mouse over the word "metamorphosis," you get a link to search.microsoft.com. Odd, no? Now in an ...

The popular online music player SeeqPod, a service whose API powers a cluster of other music sites, has apparently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, according to documents linked by TechCrunch. There hasn't been any announcement that SeeqPod's service will stop operating, but the company is facing lawsuits from record labels that object to its ability to efficiently crawl the web to find Mp3s files ...

I've lost count of the times new audio playlist sites have popped up and been compared to the heyday of Muxtape. Comparisons are inevitable, though, when we talk about the latest -- and possibly the greatest -- in a long chain of mixtape sites that never quite seem to catch on: Mixtape.me. It grabs music from around the web, notably from Seeqpod, and does a great job of letting you make and browse ...

SeeqPod offers a web-based music search engine and media player. The service lives in a gray area of the internet because it offers the ability to find and play songs and videos that have been illegally uploaded to the internet without the copyright holder's permission. But SeeqPod doesn't actually host any of the files. Now SeeqPod is hoping to graduate from a web-only service by offering a ...

Songbeat is a desktop application for accessing web-based music search and discovery services including Seeqpod, Project Playlist, SpoolFM, and Last.fm without a web browser. When you fire up the application you're greeted with a search box. Just type an artist or song title and Songbeat will attempt to find songs from the music search engines mentioned plus a few more. Or you can click on the ...

Companies like SeeqPod and Skreemr have made a business model out of letting you search for a song or musician by name and then streaming the MP3s found on the web. The sites don't actually host any of the music - just the tools to locate and play it. But they do rely on the fact that millions of people have already illegally uploaded copyrighted songs to the internet. Now Yahoo! has entered the ...

Online music sites Pandora and Last.fm do a great job of providing you with streaming music you might like based on your listening history. But what they don't do a great job of us letting you listen to any song you want at any time. That's because music labels actually want you to do things like you know, go out and buy the songs. But in this new information age, practically any song you could ...

SeeqPod is a search engine for finding music on the web. But it's much more than that. Enter an artist or song title in SeeqPod and it will look for MP3s, video files, or web sites related to you term and present them in a nice clean list -- with links to play the files on the site. You can use SeeqPod without registering for an account, but if you want to save playlists you'll want to sign up ...
