It also lets you share your music with colleagues, family, and friends with a single touch of a button. kPlaylist is created in PHP, so you can use it across all operating systems and access it via any browser.  In addition to being a platform where you can access music, kPlaylist can also be used to create online ‘radio’ stations and other incredible services that many enjoy.
