The New York Times and All Things D are both reporting that Twitter is about to launch a music feature that will use the listening habits of users' friends and followers to recommend music. It's part of the company purchase of We Are Hunted. Exactly when the service will launch is unclear.
Twitter set up a blank page with the silhouetted bird logo, ?#music? and a sign-in tab that, when clicked, asked users to give a trending music application access to their account. It describes an app that can scan your Twitter feed, update their profiles and post tweets, suggesting an ability to alert users about the music their friends were listening to.
