If someone doesn’t know what Shazam is, it listens to music playing on the radio or TV and identifies it and helps you find the name/artist.
I was wondering if there open source equivalent, I tried searching google and AlternativeTo but only found Linux desktop apps.
Even most of the Linux apps use Shazam or similar for the backend. Most everything you will find in that area has some proprietary components and I can imagine that being hard to avoid for something that has to interface with licensed content (the music)
