> How on Earth do you make Money identifying Songs for People
People go "Oh, I like that song and want to buy it but don't know what it's called". So they go to Shazam to identify it, Shazam has afilliate links to online stores where they can buy it, and Shazam gets a cut.
That's similar to how Google made a lot of it's early money - people were searching for something to buy it, and Google was showing them advertisements for the thing they're searching for. Relevant search advertising works.
