MOG Rolls Out Slick HTML5 Player, With A New Emphasis On Recommendations And Playlists

The online music race is now an all-out sprint: Amazon, Google, and Apple are now all offering (or preparing to launch) services that let you upload your music collection to the cloud, letting you listen to the music you own wherever you are. But they aren't just competing with each other — another group of services that includes MOG, Rdio, and (eventually) Spotify lets users stream any song as often as they'd like for a reasonable monthly rate of around $10 a month. It's getting fun. And today, MOG is making the race all that much closer. The service has just rolled out a new Beta player to users that streamlines the MOG experience, putting a much heavier emphasis on building out playlists and recommendations than its predecessor did.
