Twitter could soon drop its music app
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 22 October 2013
Twitter could be about to axe its much hyped music app, according to the All Things D. The music discovery service, built in part on the back of the We Are Hunted platform the social media firm quietly acquired last year, was launched back in April.
Despite the celeb-backed launch, the service was a pretty standard music discovery platform, with its potential arguably hindered by sitting outside the existing Twitter eco-system. The launch hype quickly fizzled out and the app never seemed to gain organic momentum.
Although Twitter is yet to comment, All Things D says dropping the standalone music app is now on the agenda.
