Until Apple upgrade the iTunes music store and enable you to buy tracks on the move, updating your album collection when away from your computer is pretty much impossible. Well, that was certainly the case until SeeqPod and their new iPhone-friendly interface; it’s not a music downloading client, but an internet radio search engine.

Using your WiFi connection (or EDGE if you’re a masochist) you can search for specific tracks or radio genres and it tries to locate them among publicly available sites. Since nothing is actually downloaded permanently to your iPhone you shouldn’t run afoul of RIAA heavy-handedness, and storage space isn’t a concern.

Registration is optional – always good – but doing so lets you build playlists and email custom search pages and an embedded SeeqPod player to friends. Another good thing is that you don’t need to have an iPhone to use it – SeeqPod is a standalone service that works on just about anything with an internet connection.
