iHave: a serious complaint, SHAZAM!

alright, you know i be lovin' me some shazam but lately, i hate it. "but stefanie, how could you hate such a wonderful creation?" you might ask. lend me your ear (err, eyes) and i'll tell you.

for the past couple of weeks or so every time i try to launch shazam, it crashes. it never gets past the initial start up screen. over the weekend there was a shazam update which i thought, for sure, would solve my problemo. i didn't do shit. today, there was an operating system update which i thought might solve my problemo. no dice.

now, ordinarily if i was having this kind of problem with an app (which i actually never have) i would probably just delete it and re-download it. however, shazam made some changes in november which make me hesitant to do that. new shazam users can download a free version where they're only allowed to "tag" 5 songs per month, or they can pay $5 for a version with unlimited tags (which is what i have, well, had before it stopped working). soooo now you see my dilemma. on the one hand i can't imagine being limited to 5 tags per month, on the other hand, i've had zero tags in the past 2ish weeks since the damn thing hasn't been working. and you can bet your sweet bippy that i'm not about to pay $5 for an app that might not even work properly. i just don't know what to do!

Excuse me. Did you just say bippy?

I thought so.

As you were.
