Software Review: Live Metallica for iPhone iPod Touch
Published November 11th, 2009 in iphone, ipod touch, reviews, software-review, wreview-wednesdayIt’s time for another installment of Palm Discovery’s wReview Wednesday! Today I’ll be reviewing a special app for Metallica fans (like myself
), the Live Metallica App for iPhone and iPod Touch!
A BIG THANKS to Sammy of Palm Addicts for the front page exposure! Please check them out for lots of mobile technology related news.
One of the great things about Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch is its easy and direct access to music on iTunes and to the iTunes app store. You can quickly search through the iTunes store, buy your music and listen to it on your iPhone or iPod Touch. If you’re a Metallica fan, you get a lot more! You can now also have access to the entire Metallica library of live concerts and shows as well! Live Metallica is an app for the iPhone and iPod Touch that not only is a store for the entire digitized Metallica live concerts and shows but also provides a FREE stream of the last recorded Death Magnetic concert! Talk about bringing the concert to you! You can now listen to the concert on your iPhone or iPod Touch! And the most recent concert is available for listening for FREE!


This is somewhat surprising, especially for me, considering the history of Metallica and downloads that they would come out with an iTunes app. For those who may be familiar with the stance of Metallica back a decade or so ago, remember how they were so against digital downloads in the early days of Napster? At that time, Metallica made a name for themselves for their backlash against Napster and anything to do with digital downloads, suing Napster and all that fun stuff. But that was then, and this is now. I guess Metallica realizes that if you can’t beat them…you make sure you go one up on them. And that’s what I think they did with their Live Metallica app, offering live streams of their recent concert for FREE! Think of the Live Metallica app as having your personal live concert on your iPhone or iPod Touch, accessible whenever and wherever you are!
