Simplify Music (Original)


      How often have you been listening to the music on your iPhone when you think, "Hey! I really want to listen to *insert title of song you haven't listened to in forever*!", but to your disappointment, when you go to look for that song, you realize you don't have it synced to your phone currently and will have to wait until you can get back to your computer? For me, at least, it happens all the time.  Well, Simplify Music seeks to solve this dilemma that has been tearing away at techies since the dawn of the mp3 player.  And I've got to say, Simplify Music does a really impressive job.
      What the app does is uploads all of your music to a "cloud" (very similar to Apple's Me account), and from there, your iPhone can connect to this cloud to access all of your music, from ANYWHERE! That's right, it does not just do it over wifi, but also through the cellular network of your phone.  That is a really powerful ability.
      The only extra step you need to take other than just download the app on your phone is to download the free software available on their website.  The only real problems I foresee is that for your phone to connect with the cloud, the computer the music is coming from needs to be on and have the software running.  This would be no problem for a desktop computer, but for a laptop, that is almost impossible.  It's $3.99 in the AppStore, which is a little steep, but might be worth it to some users.
