AM should integrate shazam for tuneIN stations

SongShift Last.fm
  1. Connect multiple music services to transfer music libraries & automate syncing between different music providers. And more! Custom source + destination configurations, extra features like merging, bulk processes, update monitoring, smart matching.
    I have a rather convoluted setup for achieving just this using last.fm, Finale and SongShift. It is really handy being able to pull stuff into my library automatically. The root problem as to why Apple(or anyone else for that matter) hasn't done this tends to be that radio metadata is often shit, or non-existent. While they could identify the songs using Shazam, that would require a fair amount of computing power to do at scale, and those services aren't infallible. Shazam and ACR(which powers Finale) doesn't identify everything. It does a reasonably good job, but wouldn't be perfect relative to people's expectations.
