Tunesbag Adds Smart Playlists and Music Backup Option (invites)

Vienna-based Tunesbag has announced two new features in their music streaming service. Tunesbag describes their service as, "tunesBag is a platform that lets you upload your music and stream it to your flash-enabled browser. You can also upload your playlists or create new ones, recommend tracks to your friends and comment on tracks you like".

The first feature is a smart playlist creator. You can now create playlists based on genres with your songs and your friend’s songs. Tunesbag then finds songs based on popularity and also provides a discovery mechanism to help find new songs to listen to.

The other feature is a full backup service for your music. The idea is that by uploading your music to Tunesbag, you are creating a backup of all of your music so that if your computer crashes or the CDs are lost, you can recover the music. There’s a simple utility that is used to restore the music back to your hard drive.

If you would like an invite to the Tunesbag private beta, we have 100 keys so register here.
