Cambridge,
Mass. – Bloson.com, an online
portal for charitable fundraising, announced on Monday that it has reached an
agreement to purchase the remaining assets of SeeqPod, a music search engine.
Financial
terms of the deal were not disclosed.
SeeqPod was originally a project of the
Lawrence Berkeley National Lab that specialized in playable search results.
The
company filed for bankruptcy and put itself up for sale in 2009, following
copyright infringement lawsuits filed by EMI and Warner Music.
Boson said its
users are now able to listen to an unlimited selection of music, watch
thousands of movies or TV shows, and shop, "all while raising money for
their favorite participating causes."
