Facebook: Would You Like Music With That?

Have you seen the new “Listen With” button yet? 

Facebook now has ingratiated itself with Rdio (available in Canada) and Spotify (not available in Canada–yet) so that if one of your friends is listening to a song using one of those services, you can join in and listening simultaneously.

How do you now if your friend is listenign to something?  Look for the musical note in the chat sidebar. Just hover over the name and click on the “Listen With” button that pops up.

Interesting, but remember when people used to go over to each other’s houses to listen to music together?
