Nokia Music for Windows 8 hands-on

2013-02-26
hey guys it's tom we're on with the verge and we're looking at nokia music which is running on windows 8 you're going to the application you notice this is actually a native application and it's not a html5 variant that's similar to what knock is offering on the web and swiping up from the the top of the bottom you get the sort of typical app have our support if we pan across and get into the various mixes that knock your offers and you can also create your own mix the nokia music is kind of like pandora so you can search for an artist in here and basically you're creating a plate a play list based on your favorite artists which put a few in here and you know what will happen is when you actually play the playlist it'll go out and look for songs are similar to say Bob Marley or or a faithless Oriana I'm gonna go play dough so instead of moments it's obviously playing upon multitrack here and you can't download tracks individually and there is support and if you hit the download button it'll throw you into the web and yet you have to go and buy that that song on its own one feature that you can do with knocking music is you can select one of the playlist and you can take it offline and that will literally sink it so it's available without any data connection so it's a little bit similar to sort of rival services like Spotify and the rest but when you actually search for an artist here you'll get a view of all that similar music and radio stations and you can actually go in and they'll give you all the sort of information and it treats the stuff but you won't be to like go in and select specific songs so I like Spotify where you could wait if you knew the music you want it and you go and get it this is more of a sort of radio service where it will suggest music for you based on your likes so knock your music is also available for other devices like Windows Phone and it's actually a free service on that particular device and on Windows a knock is offering a free dollars and ninety-nine cents a month for the subscription service you get seven days trial free but then after then you you'll be locked out you have to pay for the subscription so that was a quick look at the beta copy of nokia music and it's expected to come out in q1
