5 Things StumbleAudio is Doing Right

Stumble_audio_logo While another music recommendation app may not be interesting, StumbleAudio is doing at least 5 things right that their competitors should take note of:

  • StumbleAudio does not require you to register and/or login to listen to music. With so many sites to test, this is a huge plus.
  • There is no limit as to how many songs you can skip when listening to music.
  • If you find an artist you like, you can listen to every song available from that artist
  • The site is simple and fast, enough said.
  • They're focused on indie music, and they're apparently paying indie artists when their music is played on StumbleAudio - how much, I do not know. Maybe someone from StumbleAudio will respond to this post and provide us with some details.

As an added bonus, their site is ad free, at least for now. StumbleAudio has plenty of product/technical challenges ahead, not to mention the music recommendation space is already crowded, so it will be interesting to see how they differentiate themselves and monetize their offering.
