This is How you will Play Music on Chrome OS Netbooks

by Dinu

Chrome OS netbooks are not in the market yet, or Chrome OS not officially released yet. But we have a Chrome OS extension that will work as your Music Player of the Clouds or the web.

I would like to call it the iTunes of the Chrome OS even though I am unsure if we will ever connect our iPods to Chrome OS.

The concept behind ExntensionFM is a simple one: scan the webpages you browse for embedded MP3s and build a library of tunes inside your browser. You can also put together playlists, and the music will keep streaming in the background as you happily (or unhappily, depending on your modus operandi) surf the web.

ExtensionFM also provides listings of artists and albums in your library, and a list of the sites you’ve listened to — which adds a whole ‘nother layer of cool. Once you’ve grabbed a track from a particular site, ExtensionFM keeps tabs on it for you – writes DownloadSquad

You will be able to create a music library of your own, sort them as albums, artists, etc etc .. with zero effort from your side. Just visit websites providing songs or mp3s, the extension will automatically create a music library for you. You can keep music playing in the background.

Watch the following video for a small introduction of this extension. Currently this is in a closed beta. Stay tuned for updated on this . I will definitely let you all know when this becomes available for everyone.

Update: I got an invite ! I am loving this extension – hmm we can’t call it just an extension. I went to a website from where I usually  download mp3. Extension FM automatically made a playlist of songs and  and there I was, playing latest MP3s without having to wait to download all of them. Quick and Easy !

If you have a good broadband connection with excellent connection speeds, you are going to rock !

Literally !

Howz it ? Drop me comments !
