November 2nd, 2011: Research In Motion has launched BBM music which has been in beta mode for a little while now. The embattled smartphone maker launched the service today.(Wednesday) The BBM music app lets you pick up to 50 songs a month and share those songs with friends. You will need the 4.99 premium version to be able to share songs with friends. People may think thats a steep price but if you have 10 friends all with the premium version, 10x50 is 500 songs that you will have in your music arsenal to listen to. I've been using BBM music as a beta user for about a month now and the selection is very wide. I believe the app is like Pandora but better because you can pick specific songs not just songs that are relevant to your search on Pandora. The 50 songs you pick can be changed each month. Facing stiff competition from Apple and Google, Research In Motion is hoping to rebound after a recent slump.
