Review: Audials Mobile For Symbian

"audials-logo"
I recently had the chance to review an application called "Audials Mobile" for the Symbian platform when the developer contacted me and offered me a free license key to test and review the software.  The Audials Mobile homepage is located here.  So, what exactly does the software do?  The Audials Mobile software, in a nutshell, is an audio recording software.  It records MP3 files from social networking websites which offer MP3 audio as part of their service.  The Audials Mobile software has a search engine which will search the most common social networking websites for MP3 audio files using keywords that you specify, typically by artiste name.  You can also search by genres, and some, if not all, genres have sub-genres below them - see screenshots later for more details. The software comes in two versions - Audials Mobile Trial and Premium.  The trial version allows up to two recordings per day, while the premium paid version allows you unlimited recordings.  The software comes with two default search plugins - it will search the Esnips and GarageBand networks for songs.  You can download additional plugins, typically developed by their user community, to enhance your search experience - "enhance" meaning adding more sources to search from so that you will a higher/better chance of stumbling upon the songs you want to search for! Let's take a look at what the application looks like using screenshots that I made.  Here is the main screen of the application when you start it up.  Simple, no frills.  Straight to the point of what the application is all about.  There are three options - "search" to begin searching immediately for songs, "my songs" to show you your Audials Mobile music library (what you have downloaded, and are currently downloading), and "search and record plugins" to show your current search plugins and to add new ones to enhance the search experience.
