Bandbox Preps 2011 Launch
Nashville company Bandbox hopes to streamline the way fans discover and share music on Facebook. The application would allow Facebook users to share songs from iTunes the same way they share links and photos, then their Friends could listen to and purchase the song without leaving the site.
The company headed by co-founder and CEO Brian Peterson is preparing for a 2011 launch. It recently received a round of seed funding from an investor that allowed it to move out of the Nashville Entrepreneur Center incubator space into its own office. Bandbox has also hired a development team to build and test the product.
Thanks Sarah for the post. One point of clarification:
Our new platform will allow Facebook users to share music from a catalog of 15 million songs — comparable in size to the iTunes catalog – but NOT from iTunes itself.
