    @Darksergex @Fenrirtheicewo1 To be honest, i think it was a stupid change. Turning Miss Marvel to Captain Marvel was also pointless. What's wrong with Shazam having the Captain Marvel name, and why did Miss Marvel have to be Captain Marvel? Was her being feminine a problem?

    @KingKhan2045 @OEstagiari0 Sorry, I can't access or analyze the audio from the video to ID the song—tools only give frames/subtitles here (none had lyrics). Looks like a funny boat prank where the guy dodges her feet big time! If you drop any lyrics, melody description, or Shazam it yourself, hit me with details and I'll track it down. What's it sound like?

    @the_Bradster007 The problem is that there isn’t nearly enough interest in Shazam, Cyborg, Flash, Aquaman, or Green Lantern compared with all of the Marvel super heroes. This was sadly destined to fail

    Shazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!

    Ok now this is even MORE epic. How they don’t mess it up this time like they did with that god awful Shazam issue in Kryptonite Spectrum

    @GrahamGeekEire @MikeKalinowski @Filipe_sca I like the DCU I haven’t even watched any Snyder versus movies besides Shazam James is starting to disappoint though because the problem is, he’s a fan living out his fan power fantasy through his work and just does what he wants to do also this being made by a war criminal

    @DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

    @BlackMajikMan90 That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

    @Adsnewaccount @archrxz @CQuill97 Also Black Adam (I'm assuming that's the third Shazam movie?) was in pre-production for like a decade before it got made. The problem with the old universe was they were throwing **** at the wall that they were already working on. Gunn stopped everything and started from scratch.

    @Shazam Fix your app so that when you select Buy on iTunes, it takes you to the song and not the iTunes homepage. Recent app update still does not address this issue.

    @tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k

    @gamer19004 @leonarchiive Sorry, can't pull audio from X videos to ID the background song. If you describe any lyrics, melody, or vibe (sad piano? rap? rock?), I can try to narrow it down. Or Shazam the clip directly!

    Grok (@grok) reported

    @AdamService @ExtremeBlitz__ ayo the one with the one piece mafia shadows & "worst generations" voiceover? can't grab audio from x vids directly to shazam it rn, but if u got a clip/link/desc of the beat i'll track the exact track down quick. drop it!

    @TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

    Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported

    📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

    For baby army who might not know: -we are spreading the MV Teaser everywhere, but not reposting the whole MV on sns. Is taking from the YT Views -We are not watching the lyric videos, because in the past these videos were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos + they don't actually count for many local charts -we are not watching in the first 24h reaction videos, in the past these were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos -we search on Youtube with keywords such as BTS, title track name or any combination to push these keywords -while BB is not counting YT videos anymore, there are many local charts which do, so we are not leaving YT, we are just redefining who needs to focus on what -Youtube will be stuck, will freeze views, will update slowly, the counter might go up and down sometimes. This is because of the high traffic on the MV, however we keep streaming -we are streaming album top to bottom and using playlists in between -we needs to share the album because there are some charts(such as Spotify Viral Top50 chart) which are accounting the traffic on the songs -we are using sounds to promote on TT or IG reels -we are using Shazam when we can, is basically a good metric of popularity for radio(unfortunately some charts use that) -we need to prepare the apps in order to win the voting for Korean Music Shows This might look like a lot, but is basically just streaming the album, the MV and using the content to promote online while being aware of few things.

    @ForLangley @WizardsComics And the debacle itself all came down to an appalling amount of bad communication/misinformation/lack of representation, whether intended or unintended, since Mick Anglo was still alive, although once the character Marvelman, it was like, "Oh...British Captain Marvel/Shazam.."

    @Wilitooo_ @Auntyadaa I think venom suffers the same problem as black adam where the character isnt even an anti hero hes just a good guy and they have no one to fight . If black adam fought shazam and venom fought a spiderman the movies would have felt better. Andrew would have been PERFECT

    @MILFMlLK source wall yes. I forgor abt that ngl (it happens after the green cube) but the monsterlands... uncertain. death metal almost entirely decanonizes his shazam issues bc it acts as if he just got out of the source wall but honestly who freakin knows

    @ri_neb LandR is pretty decent in my opinion here is pros and cons: pro: They give you shazam, contentID for free Cover licenses are a one time payout If you stop paying your subscription they won't take down your songs, but take a 15% cur from your revenue Support team are humans only and no useless chat bot cons: Because they dont use AI in their systems they have a manual QC team that needs to look through your release and manually approve which takes some business days If you're making a remix they need documentation for rights of sample usage which takes even more days to process They dont support label plans and is generally for solo artists so if you were planning a "Various Artist" release it is usually meant for 1-3 artists per release Hope this helps
