AOL’s Mobile-First Group Steps To The Stage With Play, An Instagram For Music

As you know, we're now owned by AOL. And while it's a big company, you'd think we'd be able to find out some tidbits of information about secret projects they're working on. Nope. Sometimes it seems as if they're fine with anyone else finding out what they're working on as long as it's not us. Take the "mobile-first" group for example. We heard about their tablet reader thing when everyone else did. And now we're hearing about their secret music-sharing app, Play, when everyone else is. Well, at least it's a good idea. It's essentially Instagram for music. At least that's how Senior Director of Mobile Projects Sol Lipman pitches it to me.
