Bop.fm is a music streaming platform that aggregates songs from other music services, creating a supposed "home for every song on the internet".
The site was created to make sharing music across platforms easy, as it can be difficult to send songs found on Spotify or Rdio directly to friends.
Songs are pulled from Rdio, Spotify, YouTube, and SoundCloud. Songs can be purchased from iTunes, Amazon, and Google music stores. They plan to track other services and claim to already track music outside of their listed sources - inviting users to contact them if anything is missing. Only one result for each song is created, grouping all sources together. Bop.fm figures out which services a user is signed up for upon playback.
Bop.fm also offers radio and playlist features.
The service comes from startup accelerator program Y Combinator. Songkick, Rap Genius, and Reddit are among the program's past participants. Y Combinator told TechCrunch: "Bop.fm, in private beta, is already streaming 100,000 songs per day from consumer traffic and sites like RapGenius.com, one of Bop's first partners, where it powers music playback."
