Splash.FM: A Music Discovery Social Network That Scores How Hip You Are

Oh, you liked that band since before they were cool? Now you can prove it with Splash.FM. Launching in private beta today, the music social network lets you share songs and raise your Splash score when you help others discover them. Splash.FM lets you follow other tastemakers?and listen?through?lists of the most popular songs across the site or your network. Splash.FM's biggest weakness is also a differentiator -- it has no streaming licenses so major label songs only play as 30-second samples, but tunes by independent artists can be played in full and downloaded for free.
