I like the idea a lot. It's brilliant. Regarding the removal of the app- and music sharing feature, I noticed that it was the number one complaint and reason for a 1-star review in the app store, and then I saw this on their website:
Q. What happened to the music bumping feature?
Listening to you and reviewing our usage data, it became clear that sharing music links wasn’t a great experience for you, our users. We have removed it for now to make the app simpler and easier to use.
Q. Why can’t I bump apps anymore?
Similar to music bumping, you made it clear that this was not a great feature and therefore, we have removed it to make the app simpler and easier to use.
Marketing tip: don't lie to your users in order to smoothen out the folds and creases, because that always rubs people the wrong way and always makes a company and its product look suspicious. Just say it like it is, "Sorry, guys. Copyright and anti piracy laws forced us to remove these features."
