Announcing SongBook Lite

August 8th, 2011 0

We’ve got another new addition to our product range, SongBook Lite. This is a full featured but simplified version of SongBook ’11. SongBook Lite works on the iPhone and iPad and gives you control of UPNP based systems (including Linn DS).

SongBook Lite has just gone live on the App Store today at a special introductory price. It’s perfect for trying out SongBook if you have not already tried SongBook ’11.

One of the reasons we had for releasing SongBook Lite is that Apple would not let us to continue to support existing SongBook DS users with updates and fixes. We didn’t think that this was acceptable, so we had to find a way to keep SongBook DS alive but to also clearly differentiate it from our current main products. Given that SongBook DS had less features than SongBook ’11, and that it also had full UPNP support, we could rename SongBook DS to SongBook Lite and achieve an end result that allows us to still support our existing users. We do hope that most users that are serious about streaming music will move up to SongBook ’11 over time, but this still means that they are not forced to upgrade.

New features such as the iPod streaming are only available on SongBook ’11 and this will continue to be the case. SongBook Lite will provide all the basic features needed to enjoy your music while still going well beyond what other products offer in terms of features. As an example of this we have full TuneIn radio support in SongBook Lite. This not only lets you browse the entire radio directory, but you can add and remove favourites right from within SongBook. These favourites are synced to your TuneIn account so that they are available wherever you listen to TuneIn Radio.
