A new and advanced approach to music search and discovery is essential to the future of digital music sales. In the first quarter of 2008, online digital music sales accounted for 13.8% of all music sold (source: NPD Group www.npd.com), and that figure is on the rise. As digital music sales exceed physical CD sales, innovative options in online search and discovery become crucial for attracting and retaining customers. Consumers are simply flooded over with content: Music fans are drowning in a sea of digital audio from hundreds of online sources, and a torrent of independent music is pouring in to that online ocean, competing for attention with a chaotic roar. Search engines that offer only basic keyword searching have become less and less effective, and the successful introduction of new artists and tracks is becoming more complex and elusive. Providing consumers with a satisfying experience is the key way for music services to stand out and motivate legitimate, repeated usage. One Llama offers cutting-edge tools that will make discovering new music efficient and entertaining.

One Llama Classify™ enables music aggregators to classify digital music automatically and accurately, making it simpler for customers to browse and purchase music. Classify™ is a machine learning system--That means you teach it, and it learns! You can customize the system's training so that it classifies new music automatically, exactly how you want in tagged, as you receive it.
