mflow testing browser-based service
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 3 December 2010
Twitter-meets-iTunes music service mflow, which enables users to build a network of followers Twitter-style, and then recommend tracks for said followers to preview and buy in return for a cut of any sales revenue, is currently beta testing a web browser-based version of its service.
The current mflow set up, which launched earlier this year, works through a desktop client similar to Spotify, but the new version will be accessible via any web browser without an install. For years now the general mantra among web developers has been that browser-based services that do not require users to install new software are always better, though, of course, Spotify is the exception that proves that rule.
It seems that, initially at least, mflow plans to offer both the browser-based and desktop-client version of its service. The former is still being tested, but existing users have been invited to try it out at beta.mflow.com.
