Musician are expected to benefit a lot from this new app available for the iPhone. iLike, the leading social music discovery service, today announced a suite of new features for musicians, including integration with Twitter, YouTube, and MySpace, as well as a turnkey system for any artist to quickly create and distribute their own custom iPhone app.

These integrations expand on iLike’s existing syndication model and enable more than 300,000 artists who use the iLike Artist Dashboard to save time and reach more fans via these new channels.

The new content syndication destinations announced today, described in detail at www.iLike.com/manage, include:

  • Twitter: Artists can now link their iLike and Twitter accounts, bringing their “tweets” to more fans via the iLike music feed, the artist’s iLike profile, and the artist’s page on Facebook. Likewise, when an artist posts a new song, video, or concert listing, iLike will notify fans via Twitter.
  • YouTube: Artists can now sync their YouTube channel and iLike account. Every video an artist posts to iLike will be automatically posted to their YouTube channel, and vice versa.
  • MySpace Concert Listings: iLike now lets artists enhance the concert listings on their MySpace pages, via a widget that adds prominent buy-links and allows fans to “RSVP” to a concert and see who else is going. Artists can also configure their iLike Artist Dashboard so that any blog, bulletin, or video they post at iLike is also posted on their MySpace page.
  • Facebook Pages “Music” Tab: Artists can now add the Music tab to their Page on Facebook. The Music tab, by iLike, features the artist’s songs, concerts, videos, bulletins, blogs, and tweets.
  • Artist dot-com Websites: The iLike Artist Dashboard now allows artists to manage the content on their own official dot-com websites via embeddable javaScript widgets.
  • Ticketmaster: Songs, photos, and videos posted to the iLike Dashboard will also appear on the artist’s page on Ticketmaster.
  • Artist iPhone Apps: iLike today announced a turnkey system to enable any artist to rapidly create and distribute their own iPhone app featuring the artist’s concert dates, photos, blogs, bulletins, and videos. A self-service system allows artists to customize the look and feel of their app and submit it to the iTunes App Store.

In addition, iLike continues to syndicate artist content to more than 45 million music fans across the iLike network, including iLike’s leading music applications on iGoogle, Facebook, hi5, Bebo, Orkut, and iLike plugins for iTunes and Windows Media Player.

While many people are talking about the App Store hitting one billion downloads, Slacker Radio reports that it has surpassed the 1 million download mark for the BlackBerry Smartphones as well. BlackBerry enthusiasts cite many reasons for choosing Slacker, including a music library with four times as many songs and the high-fidelity audio on Slacker vs. the inferior mono audio of a leading competitor.

In addition, Slacker offers the only Personal Radio application that enables listeners to store their favorite stations on their memory card so they can listen whether they are connected to a wireless network or not. Cached stations provide better application performance and reduce battery requirements by as much as five times.

BlackBerry smartphone owners can create their own custom stations with all of their favorite artists and songs or listen to over 100 expert-programmed Slacker stations. Listeners can also read detailed artist biographies, album reviews and lyrics for songs, providing a powerful resource for music discovery.

The Slacker Radio App for BlackBerry smartphones is available as a free download on BlackBerry App World or by visiting Slacker.com from your BlackBerry(R) Browser.
