		<description>[...] Die Userkommentare haben ebenfalls eine &#246;konomische Bedeutung. Mit dem Kauf eines Songs erwirbt man auch &#8220;Recs&#8221; - Empfehlungspunkte, die man verwenden kann, um andere auf den gefundenen Schatz aufmerksam zu machen. Steigt nun der Preis des empfohlenen Songs, gibt es wieder Credit, um neue Songs zu kaufen. Ziemlich ausgekl&#252;gelt, Techcrunch sagt: &#8220;the core business model is killer&#8221;.
