About: Turntable.fm

An Entity of Type: website, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Turntable.fm is a social media website that allows users to collaboratively stream music.

The company used the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to license the music that was played on the website; because of this, only individuals from the United States were allowed to use the service.
