WaTunes was a social music service founded in 2006 by American songwriter and entrepreneur Kevin Rivers.[citation needed] Based in Detroit, Michigan, WaTunes used to provide artist users an opportunity to get their music place into leading digital retailers such as iTunes, Napster, Amazon, Rhapsody, and eMusic. WaTunes was the world's first Facebook Music Store app that enables users to discover millions of songs, stream & download MP3s, share music on any social network and more on Facebook. WaTunes closed down in April 2010.[citation needed]
Though providing a social media service for thousands of independent artists, WaTunes has been used by many notable artists & celebrities.
