Speed

Shazam works in less than 1 second sometimes, nowadays. 10 seconds is out of date.

How it works

Does anyone know how the application works? 120.17.171.156 (talk) 07:34, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

There's a video explaining it at http://www.parleys.com/#st=5&id=2869&sl=53, see also the blog post at http://www.redcode.nl/blog/2010/06/creating-shazam-in-java/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiwibird (talk • contribs) 07:04, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

No DSi app

Just noting that I've taken the unsigned HTML comment "I asked Shazam Customer Service about the DSi app and there is no such implementation of the service, nor will there ever be." out of the article and put it here. --McGeddon (talk) 09:45, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

req

i've got trouble with this one song DA WU HUI by JACKY CHEUNG, EVONNE HSU .... I found about it with shazam but i can't find much details about it. i wish you could probably show us your sources as well, in cases of such unpopular items. otherwise am enjoying the app since i started using it a few months ago.
