Shazam  ShazamUpdate 

As Josh posted about yesterday, Shazam – the hugely popular song-identifying app for the iPhone – has recently released a new, paid-for, app called Shazam Encore.  They also announced that new users of the existing, free, Shazam app would be subject to a 5 tags (song identifications) per month limit.

Since then I’ve seen a number of people asking whether or how the ‘grandfathering’ of existing users would be handled, and whether they would really continue to have unlimited tagging. The update page for Shazam’s free version – shown above – makes it clear that you do keep unlimited tagging.

I’ve tried this out a little this afternoon – and it certainly works fine for me.  I reeled off a dozen tags in a short space of time and got no complaints from the app.  If you had a chance to update, let us know how it goes for you.
