A group of Cornell students and alumni has taken it upon itself to challenge current forms of music recommendation platforms and applications — such as Pandora.com — with its own dot.com venture, Additune.com.
Additune is a Mac-only application that allows people to expand their playlists and discover new music, emphasized Peter Brodsky grad, co-creator of the program. The Additune application analyzes playlists on iTunes and then offers a number of recommended tracks to the user, which can be listened to for thirty seconds (as per licensing laws) or purchased.
