MPme[edit]
MPme is Apsmart’s first in-house product release. It is a curated internet radio service that listens to thousands of radio stations in real-time and uses that data plus the users music library, listening habits and those of the users friends to recommend which stations will be great for the user. It then allows the user to listen to them.
