Or they can use the app to talk about anything else - like sports or pop culture, for example - but do so while also curating a selection of music for their listeners and taking live callers.

Amazon’s Amp differentiates itself by providing access out of the gate to a broad music catalog. However, for the most part, these Clubhouse rivals have focused on talk - like live podcasts. While the app Clubhouse led the way by establishing a new format for live audio social interactions, the idea has since been spun out into numerous competitors - each with their own angle, including Twitter’s Spaces, Facebook’s Live Audio Rooms, Spotify’s Greenroom, and those from smaller startups, like the Mark Cuban-backed Fireside or David Sacks-backed Callin. The new app, which was previously reported by The Verge when in development under the name Project Mic, represents Amazon’s somewhat belated entry into the live audio market. “Decide on a show title, create a playlist, and you’re just seconds away from streaming your own radio show.”
“It’s easy to share your voice and favorite songs with the world on Amp,” the app’s description on the App Store says. The retail giant on Tuesday launched a new mobile app called Amp, which allows people to create live “radio shows” where they can act as a DJ by taking callers and playing tracks from its catalog of tens of millions of licensed songs, ranging from classic titles to today’s music. Amazon’s Clubhouse competitor has arrived.
