Update on Library Funding: We are very appreciative at the Wood County District Public Library (WCDPL) for the support we receive through state funding, a local levy since 2011, and the generous support of the Friends of the Library as well as the Library Foundation.
Shazam (service) Shazam is a mobile app for Macintosh, personal computers and smartphones, that can identify music, movies, advertising, and television shows, based on a short sample played and using the microphone on the device. Shazam Entertainment Limited was founded in 1999 by Chris Barton, Philip Inghelbrecht, Avery Wang, and Dhiraj Mukherjee.
1. Use Shazam or MusicID. These are popular apps that analyze sounds and identify songs from their database of recordings. If you've got Shazam on your phone and hear a song you can't identify and don't know anything about, activate the app and hold it toward the audio source and wait for a result.1  Shazam can be used on iPhone, Blackberry, Android and most other mobile devices. 2  These apps typically don't work as well with live performances.. Search for the context of the song to help narrow it down. If you're looking for a song you heard during the credits of a TV show, do a quick search for Song playing at the end of Sopranos Episode Six, Season Five or Song in Mazda commercial.. 1  If you think you're getting close, use iTunes.
