I mean, given that Google still can't even get close, I'd be inclined to tell every last one of them they're full of it.

I actually bought Shazam on android after repeated attempts at getting google to find music in the same way - they're laughably bad.

my recent experience with shazam is that it's much less accurate than Google when picking out random background music from a noisy area.

that said, i still prefer shazam because it's an actual app, whereas google's implementation is a button that sometimes appears in the google app, and sometimes doesn't, seemingly at random.
