App Review: Amp Music Player by Vicious Dericious

-Introduction- Amp music player is a stunning new play to listen to your music on your iphone/ipod. Out of the few music players for the device this one is my favorite and I have even replaced the basic music player with this. When you open up the app after download you will have to wait a couple of min for the app to download your music to it. The app will then take you to one of the several menus that you can choose from. A great feature is that you can change the theme of the app to one of the 4 free themes. There are two premium themes that are very nice!

-Pros&Cons- Unlike your basic music player for your device this one lets you “QUE” music, so that you can listen to whatever song you like without making a playlist. If you scroll over to the “Now Playing” feature it not only shows the song that is playing but it also will search you tube for the music video,get lyrics. and even show concerts in your area. I tried this app with 10 songs some popular and some so not and it got 7 out of the songs correct on music video and lyrics! If you have your own lyrics it will use them. They removed the ads in a recent version of the game.  The problems that I get out of this app are; slow start up, a few crashes, and a freeze. The pros out weigh the cons by alot, a new upgrade would make this app almost perfect. Anther complaint is the way the menus are set up. They get a little confusing on your first time using the app but I like it better than the basic music player. Last thing I do not like is there is little themes to choose from only 6. Overall this is bar far the best music player replacement app I have yet to find my score for this app is a 9/10 and I highly recommend this to any music lover!

Samsung ready to roll out new digital media player to take on Apple's iPod

Samsung thinks it can go head-to-head with Apple with its Galaxy tablet.

Samsung is set to unveil its latest digital media player as the company attempts to compete with Apple's touch-screen devices.

Similar to the newest iPod Touch, the Galaxy Player, which is powered by Google's Android software, has a front-facing camera that allows users to have video chats and upload photos online using wireless networks, Samsung said.

The gadget will go on sale in South Korea next month, though no price has yet been given.

Samsung plans to roll out the device in other countries in the April to June period and will show it off next week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

The new product will directly compete with Apple's iPod Touch and help Samsung lure a wider range of customers with its brand- name Galaxy S smartphone, said Kim Chang Yeul, an analyst at Mirae Asset Securities.

"It's a natural extension of the product lineup," he said. "Their MP3 player didn't do so well, but they have a successful phone, so they're trying to build their product lineup on it."
