Thanks! We actually totally understand what you are saying. We have looked at both Shazam and Sound Hound (both top music recognition apps) but see not trace of a public API any time soon. However, we built this app in hopes to just see if people will use it as a tool. If we gain a large enough user base we will start investing in building our own recognition engine, but hopefully by then something public will be available.

In regards to that specific pain point, I do believe we understand that. It is def something that occurs when you are listening to a song in the car or have no idea what the name of the song is but you really want to know and download it later. We will do our best to provide a solution!
