True Social Recommendation - On Beat-Play, you are given the list of all of the artists that you "Like" on Facebook, along with a list of your friends. You're then able to filter those lists by the people that you actually trust the most to recommend music to you. Beat-Play then takes your filtered list and feeds you only the Youtube videos and Souncloud songs directly from the Facebook pages of those people, creating a more relevant form of content discovery. If you then "Like" something, it will automatically get sent to anyone "following" you, who trusts your tastes. This creates a social filter where the content that is the best will spread far and fast throughout intertwining social networks, and the content that's not so good, won't spread. This form of Social Recommendation is also a new way of marketing that could apply to any product, meaning companies that offer the best value to their customers, regardless of marketing budgets, can get their products out the masses.
