LongPlay Allows Peers To Listen To Your Music While On The Move

LongPlay is a mobile app that allows your peers to listen to your music on the move. The idea is pretty straightforward. You upload your library of music to LongPlay and send an authentication code to your peers who will log on to enjoy listening to your music. To prevent piracy, friends can’t download the music from peers.

LongPlay is a product that was launched in influential Chinese tech blog 36kr’s developers’ day. The founder, KJ, told me that he was inspired to create an application to allow easy music sharing in real-time because he saw couples and friends listening from the same earphone. LongPlay started as a web service before having its shiny new iOS app. KJ is originally from Shanghai but moved to Singapore for work. He told me:

LongPlay first comes with a web version, with a real time engine, which can play your own music in your Dropbox, then became an iOS app now.

LongPlay is a pretty cool app which can’t really be felt by reading this article. Give it a try on the web or download its iOS app to starting listening and sharing music with your friends in real-time.
