Simply put, Orb is better...stream TV, documents, XM Radio (need sub.), music, videos.

Grabbed this one as soon as I read about it! Great find! I haven’t tried it out yet, but I’m never not going to take advantage of a good free application again.

JR… I am able to play DRM protected music. The issue I am seeing is that there is music I have access to that I do not own, which seems to be very stange. like it is capturing music from someone else’s playlist…

Their site FAQ says DRM-protected songs cannot be streamed to iPhone. For those who purchase alot from iTMS this new app doesn’t do much good.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't even have an iPhone yet and I downloaded it, just because I know that I WILL use it when I do get an iPhone in a month or so.

Thanks for saving me $4!

Terrific app. It took the desktop client forever to read my iTunes database but once it did it worked.

I like the fact that they add the album cover art themselves. There are a few CD's that I loaded into the iTunes library which Apple doesn't sell and won't provide the artwork for but Simplify will.

Now on to more testing to see how usable this is in the real world. But in concept and an early look at execution this is the type of mobile app service that you'll want on your iPhone - especially if you are forced to leave some content at home.

I notice that even docked when I am streaming the 16k songs I have it burns the battery to death. So it seems to be burning the battery up even though it is charging at the same time. I wonder if they can fix that? Other than that…I am voting best app so far (at least for me)

I just got it. Thanks for the tip, guys. You've been making my iPhone experience that much better.

Now, to test the app!
