GrooveShark Goes MuxTape On Us With Embeddable/Emailable Playlists

by Jason Wilk on October 26, 2008

  • This week Grooveshark launched embeddable playlist widgets (pictured left) for users to post to over thirty different sites including MySpace, Blogs, etc.
  •  You can also email the digital mixtape to a friend or yourself in a one song format (pictured right) or as many as 2000. 
  • Very interesting to see another startup enter into the mixtape scene, as we have seen Muxtape shut down by the RIAA and OpenTape, FavTape, and Tumbltape copycats. 
  • In the past year, Groovershark has grown from 15K uniques a month to now 110K. How long before they will start showing up on the RIAA’s radar?

    Hey Jason,

    Thanks so much for the ping. We want people to share the music--and do it with their own look and feel, hence the customizable options.

    We (like everyone) hope that the music industry continues trending toward innovation, collaboration, and embrace of all the cool new ways to listen to music that pop up everyday.

    Thanks again, Jason, and if you'd ever like to chat about anything, definitely hit me up at bwc@grooveshark.com, or on Twitter: http://twitter.com/grooveshark. I'd love to hear from you!

    <3
