Music can a bonding element. It is also a divisive element– Britney fans are derided by Pete Bjorn fans, while classical music aficionados can”t bear to listen to anything less than John Cage.

It requires a download which will upload your 100 most listened to or recent songs from iTunes or your iPod.

The homepage features tabs with new twoners, popular twoners and a search function set up against a pink and blue background. Twones is available for download to both PC”s and Macs; it is free to use.

Some Questions About Twones.com
