"Rexly’s Social Music Discovery App Is What Ping Should Have Been"

"While this only works with iTunes music for now, it’s meant to scale up and be a service that recommends movies, TV and books from Netflix, Amazon and other services. And that will make it even more appealing as a cross-platform recommendation platform that touches various forms of media. I think Apple’s meager attempt with Ping shows there’s more work to be done in this space. That’s why I like Rexly."

"Rexly offers some innovative ideas. The site lets a user socialize around an iTunes purchase, and has different privacy levels that allows users to share purchases with everyone, only certain friends, or no one (in the case of those guilty-pleasure buys)."

"Rexly is a website that is essentially a social layer on top of Apple’s iTunes–the service that Ping should have been. The service pulls people’s music and TV and movie purchases from iTunes and arranges it into a stream for people to click to listen or buy on the content."

"What I am most excited about is seeing how music listeners respond to Rexly. Showcased at TechCrunch Disrupt this week, Rexly emphasized that the problem in music platforms is not an “algorithm problem,” rather it is a “data collection problem.”
Rexly is superior quality recommendation and true social discovery for digital media (starting with music, and expanding to movies, books & TV). Rexly aggregates the most important behavioral and social data, and applies the powerful algorithmic techniques to curate a best-in-class discovery experience. In a UX dominated by a subset of trusted friends, users sample, purchase and socialize around content from the platforms they already use (i.e. iTunes, Pandora, Netflix, Hulu, etc.)
