More than 2 years without a review shows how discouraged we are by Shazam being able to become a more reliable program. Erratically unpredictable results and an IN-CREDIBLE inability to recognise even the most important classics (maybe because having not appeal for the 'majors' as 'best sellers'?) makes it not that 'must have, start at login' program it promised to become!

This desktop version of Shazam is very disappointing. The interface is confusing as it seems lifeless when it doesn't recognize a song, and that happens a lot. My guess is 10-20% is matched, sadly there are a lot of mistakes. Not just different versions of a song but different artist and song altogether. Needs work.

I like that all my songs are saved automatically. 4 because sometimes the app finds original songs (instead of remix i was scanning).
