AudioBop for iPhone and iPod touch Description AudioBop is an app to browse the Internet Archive's Live Music and Audio archives. To browse the archives, tap on one of the several available types of collections. Doing so will display all the sub-collections within that collection. Items in sub-collections can be displayed according to their rating (higher rated items on top) or by the date they were added to the collection (newer items on top). Optionally, you can also enter a text string to search for in the collections. More relevant results will be displayed on top. Tap on any item to display the details about that item. Details include the full description of the item, its rating if it has one, the number of downloads, and its running time if available. Since most items are uploaded by users of the Internet Archive, some items may not have complete details. Also listed are the actual audio tracks. Tap on one to play it. If the audio format is visible below the track title, tap on it to switch to an alternate audio format if one is available. Lastly, a list of related keywords may be shown. Tapping on one of these is a shortcut to doing a search for that keyword. If you find a particularly interesting item, you can bookmark it for later listening by using the bookmark control in the top-right corner of the Details screen. Switch to the Bookmarks tab to view your bookmarks. Swipe from left to right across any bookmark to delete it. Settings Use the Settings screen to show audio formats in the Details screen and set the default audio quality. If Show Audio Formats is on, below each track title will be the audio format and size of the track, if available. Usually the smaller the file, the inferior the quality. Larger files will usually sound better, but may require a longer time to load. Since network connections to the internet may vary, some tracks may be available in a variety of formats. Disclosures To access the audio archive with AudioBop, you may need to connect to the internet via a Wi-Fi network to stream large audio tracks. The Internet Archive in no way endorses this product, nor are they associated with Bubble Pop Software in any manner. Some icons by Joseph Wain / glyphish.com
