If they only have a button that works while a song is playing, then it is only good for people who only listen to music by itself and not in conjunction with other activities. And when I hear a song for the first time I often don't remember enough for something like Shazam. But I will remember when I heard it and maybe some songs I know that were in the same time window.

Apple is capable of putting out a good product and throwing out something just good enough to scrape by won't help sell unfamiliar works.

Shazam is okay but it doesn't cover much of the indie range.
