UPDATED: The Music & Lyrics app is now available on the Mac App Store. Click here to download!

About a month ago we introduced our Music & Lyrics app designed for Mac users. Unfortunately, by now we only got approved to have the rights to use those lyrics in Taiwan. It seems we need to negotiate with every country by ourselves to have the rights for worldwide use. That would be a big challenge for us because we are a two-person team.

So, we decided to split the Music & Lyrics app into three variants. The original Music & Lyrics has been renamed to "Music & Lyrics Pro", and it will be released only if we have the rights to use lyrics for worldwide use. Two other added variants are "Music & Lyrics" and "Music & Lyrics Lite" that remove the ability to search lyrics on the Internet to avoid the copyright issues, and which means you need to create your own lyrics (in LRC format) by yourself. The following table shows the differences of these three variants:

	Music & Lyrics Pro	Music & Lyrics	Music & Lyrics Lite
Search Lyrics on the Internet	Yes	No	No
Ads	No	No	Yes
Free	No	No	Yes

Though it's a bit inconvenient to create lyrics (in LRC format) by self. A good news is, it's not a big deal to do so by using our well-designed Lyrics Manager. Better, if your music files already include plain lyrics in the lyrics field. You can simply import them as easy as the following picture. The only thing you left to do is just synchronizing the time tags.

Also note that due the lack of the ability to search lyrics on the Internet in latter two variants. Only three lyrics states are remaining...

So far, we have submitted the Music & Lyrics to Apple for review. The Lite version will come a bit later, and the Pro version... we actually don't know when it will be released due the complexity of global copyright issues.

As usual, we will announce a free for a limited time discount for the upcoming Music & Lyrics app. Join our Facebook fan page or follow us on Twitter now if you don't want to miss it.
