Social BlackBerry Music Service

Social BlackBerry Music Service - Download Blackberry Music Streaming Store Apps.We got some new information regarding the rumored BlackBerry music service and I’m not sure what to think just yet but I am quite intrigued. One of my personal favorite features of BlackBerry Messenger is the ability to show the music you are listening to in your status, and always thought it was a shame that neither Slacker Radio or Pandora plugged into this feature. This is one reason I don’t think I’d ever subscribe to the premium level of either service. It seems that this BlackBerry variation may be the answer and I am excited to check it out once available.

Users will have to download the new standalone BlackBerry music app from App World
Once installed, there *should* be a free trial (may vary by country/carrier – but expect a month free)
Once the free trial expires, the service will cost $5/mo.
With the app installed, you can choose up to 50 songs of your choice. Apparently the catalog selection is pretty good!
From there, you invite your contacts via BBM, etc. to also download the app if they don’t have it and join your music sharing network (invited contacts must pay the $5/mo. also to take part and remain part of the service).
From there, you can listen to not only the 50 songs you’ve selected), but any of the 50 songs from your music sharing network. So if you have 20 contacts, you’ll have access to 1,000 other songs in addition to your 50. We’re not sure yet if there’s a limit to how many people you can share with, but essentially the more people in your music sharing group the more music you’ll have access to.

Be sure to leave comments letting us know what you think about the BlackBerry Music service.
