New iPhone App Streams iTunes Collections Anywhere

In what may be most promising portable music sharing application to date, Simplify Media -- available now for iPhone and iPod Touch on the App Store -- lets users stream their friends iTunes libraries from any broadband Internet connection, making storage capacity something of a non-issue.
Like its sister apps for Mac, Linux, and Windows, the program lets users stream songs and playlists from both the their own computers and those of up to 30 friends, complete with album art and lyrics attached to each track. And here's what's awesome: The software even works over 2G and 3G networks, meaning you'll always be connected (if at a somewhat slower speed), even when not in range of a Wi-Fi network. While it's not a huge deal, the downside is that DRM-protected iTunes purchases won't stream through the program (it's a copyright thing).
The iPhone app is free to the first 100,000 to download it, $3.99 for everyone else. Get it, go, forth, and be merry. [Source: TUAW]

Oh nice this App rules! Having my entire iTunes collection on the go! Works well so far. If I had to point out a few negatives, it would be that it takes a while to sync your songs the first time you start it up, but after that you will have all your songs, so it's no problemo! And the other thing is you can't go back Home like when you are using iPod. Nonetheless, great App and I love it.
