company,claimed that it has developed the world’s fastest mobile content
identification experience for music,broadcast media and television

identification creates the most efficient way possible to discover,purchase
and share the music,television content and brand offers that our loyal users
love,”said Alex Musil,EVP product for Shazam.

already been released for the Shazam App on Android.
