"The amount of music on the Internet is much larger than music found in localized catalogs or physical inventories," said Kasian Franks, co-founder and CEO, SeeqPod, Inc. "It's also a well known fact now that the Internet has a growing inventory filled with mashups, mixes and music of all kinds." Franks added, "SeeqPod understands that today and in the future search results need to be played in order for relevance to be apparent."
Now, SeeqPod. com users are able to build playlists and instantaneously access them using the new iPod Touch and iPhone. As playlists are published to the iPod Touch, they can be shared with anyone else using an iPod Touch, iPhone or the SeeqPod. com Website.

Like any other search engine such as Google or Yahoo, SeeqPod crawls, indexes, searches, displays and links to search results. While SeeqPod enables users to Search, it also enables users to Discover, thus allowing results with hidden connections which would not ordinarily be found. SeeqPod's search capabilities can be applied to any vertical such as Music, Music Video, Sports, Celebrity Search, Health, Finance as well as matching contextually relevant advertising to content.
