Radio on the TV...

Just the other day I told my brother how cool I thought it would be to have an IMDB type thing for television shows and commercials. You know, so you could look up who did the song on that hot Bravia commercial (by the way, that was Jose Gonzalez -- you can watch it here). Today he sends me a link to KillerStartups.com saying it already exists -- sort of. Heardontv.com relies on users to submit information about songs they have heard on television shows. From their site:

"heardontv.com is a user generated website centered on music heard on tv in your favorite tv shows. Just watched a tv show, looking for the music you just heard? Look no further. And if you already know the title of a song you just heard, go ahead and contribute!"

On the site you can search by show, artist or song. Hopefully they will expand this service to include commercials soon. Granted, it's not quite what I had envisioned but I suppose it serves the basic purpose.
