the site was one of the first ever music discovery and editorial sites. Epitonic posted free and legal MP3s available for streaming and download, working directly with thousands of artists and labels. All of the music was selected, written about, and posted by a staff of young DJs, touring artists, record collectors, and music lovers based in San Francisco and Chicago.

Clearly, some APIs such as Google Maps, appear to be more widely used than others.
UI Issues:
Cross-browser support is good but not complete.
Sometimes it can b
