Streaming Audio, FM Radio apps, MP3 Files- These are the few of the many ways you can use a BlackBerry as a music player.
The feature that makes MP3 players a fascinating device is its portability. You can carry it anywhere you want and listen to songs. You can also find specialist devices to operate it in underwater.
You will not be able to find this feature in any mobile phones, but there is an important feature which makes mobile phones competitive with MP3 players. You can watch live streamlined videos from various online sources. The mobile phones also act as network radio receivers. You will get all the possible apps from MP3s, stream audios to listening to radios.
MP3 Playback
MP3 is the default music player of BlackBerry. The device comes with a default media player, where you can play MP3 files. These MP3 files can either be saved in your phone or removed when not needed from the memory card.
Using your media player application, you can Playback music files. To use the Playback, the software that is included with the phone is more than enough.
Internet Radio
It is always a good idea listening to FM Radio, but you will not find this feature in all RIM handsets.
So, find a possible alternative is the right solution. iHeartRadio from Eeverythingberry.com is a good solution. It is BlackBerry music and talk radio streaming app with features like, you can find 250 stations of different genres with an added benefit like compatibility with 7130 devices with OS version 4.2 or later.
Last.fm comes between the above two. This popular online “station” plays back tunes that it guesses you might like as a user based on your previous tune selections.
Streaming Content
There is also Didiom- a similar like Last.fm. The most important feature is that it allows you to stream tunes from your own PC across the web, so that you can listen to them on your BlackBerry whenever you’re ready. This Didiom works for your PC and BlackBerry, facilitating both the streaming of content from one to the other as well as allowing you to purchase further tracks.
One can download this app from www.didiom.com/download with an annual fee of $9.99.
So, you can see the quality of apps developed by the BlackBerry developers, which can give competition to any other apps built for other smartphones.
