mySpot is a pocket pc software that provides access to the Spotify service on the Windows Mobile platform. It should works with any QVGA, VGA or WVGA device running Windows Mobile 6.0 or higher (see the additional requirements below). Spotify is a proprietary peer-to-peer music streaming service that allows instant listening to specific tracks or albums with virtually no buffering delay. Music can be browsed by artists, albums, record labels or created playlists as well as by direct searches. Although, due to the system’s DRM, it is not possible to save the streamed music for use outside the application, a link is provided to allow the listener to directly purchase the material via partner retailers. The service is currently only available in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the United Kingdom, France and Spain.

Features:

• Full implementation of the Spotify search and top list functions
• Choose your own media player – define how each track is played (CorePlayer v1.30 is recommended)
• Album artwork can also be downloaded as required

Requirements:

• The .NET 2.0 Compact Framework (which should come with Windows Mobile 6.0 and above as standard)
• A Premium Spotify Account (register at http://www.spotify.com)
• A media player that supports the ogg audio format (eg. CorePlayer)
• The app requires a data connection to work

Twolf has created a simple sinewave synthesizer triggered by an ordinary 12×9 step sequencer. Just click on different bubbles to make sound patterns that repeat over and over. It can be fun to use when you’re bored. It was created to emulate ToneMatrix, which can be played on your computer.

How it works:

- Just click or drag the finger to use.
- Left/right/up/down to clear the screen.
- Enter to exit.

Note: ToneBox needs Flash7 to play.

Grooveshark mobile, created by nilezon, is an application able to stream any song from Grooveshark. The application is still full of bugs, so it should be considered more of a proof-of-concept at the moment.

UPDATE 29/9:

New alpha version (0.2) released!
Some of the crashing is hopefully gone.

Known bugs:

* BASS (the audio player) sometimes gives you a message box saying that the playback failed. Wait a few seconds and try again.
* The spinning umbrella gets stuck on the result list (scroll a little to remove it).
* The search query doesn’t get copied from the search screen to the result/player screen.

YoutubePlay is a Windows Mobile Freeware YouTube search/player application. Bit like the latest CorePlayer. It allows you to search for videos in a nice friendly Pocket PC 2003 and greater app and then stream the full FLV video (not miniscule MPEG4 versions) within its own player. This app can also download the FLV videos for offline use and also then extract the soundtrack to an MP3 file. The video player overlay is hacked out of TCPMP and the FLV part is based on FFMPEG. The app is written in a mixture of .net and C so you need the .net runtime, v2 or v3.5

Updates in v1.0.0.11

• New – Fully works on Pocket PC 2003 now, found the horrid bug that stopped it
• New – Will open and play VP6 (On2) FLV files, slow but should work
• New – Uses newer version of FFMPEG SVN from a few days ago
• Fix – Fullscreen should work if you start in landscape mode now
