Sony BMG launches branded iPhone app for Pink’s Funhouse
Monday, October 27th, 2008
Sony BMG has launched a branded iPhone application for `Funhouse’, the new album from Pink. It went live on Apple’s App Store at the end of last week.
The app has 30-second previews of songs from the album, as well as photos, news and a discography. This being an iPhone app, there are also direct links to buy Pink’s back catalogue from the iTunes Store.
It’s called P!nk’s Funhouse (we think that’s deliberate, not iTunes going off on one censorship-wise), and is free to download. Could this be the start of a trend? There’s proven demand for free iPhone apps, although they have to offer something more than pure marketing, of course.
