Along with Itunes i use a couple of other music apps for downloading and would like to have all of the songs show up from the 2-3 apps i use into 1 app, is this possible and if so what program/app would you suggest?
Thank you

I don't understand what you want to do. First off, Soundhound doesn't play music, it listens to music and tells you what it is. You don't get any music from it. And there are two apps called MusicBox so I don't know which to comment on: One seems to be an internet radio station (of which it also has no music, but plays music from the radio station) and the other's description looks like Spanish so I don't even know what it does, but if it's also a radio station, then it's also getting music from a radio station. There aren't any apps that have their own list of music, and then other apps that have their own, the music is either all used from your own collection (so all the music on your phone or computer is accessed by whatever program and then plays it) or they are radio station that just play music from whatever internet source their station comes from. It's not like if you have iBooks and Kobo and Google Play books on your phone where each one has it's own book stores and when you buy a book in one app, it's there and you need to open that app to read that book and open a different app to read the books you have in that and so on. Music Apps only use the music you already have in your phone or computer, and it's one communal group of music. If you buy music, whether from itunes, burning your own .mp3s or from some jailbroken music store, it all goes into your main collection of music (I might be wrong about jailbroken, there could be some apps that have music just saved within that app) and all music apps draw from that collection of music. Internet radio apps don't save music, they simply play what the station is playing. It's not saved in your phone or computer (unless you have a program that will record the music) and regardless of which music box app you are talking about, SoundHound is not a music playing app, it is for song recognition. nothing will play it's collection of music because it has none.

Like I explained, all your music is only in one source. Every song in your phone or computer is accessed by any/all music programs out of your pool of music. Different apps don't have different lists of music unless you're listening to internet radio, and those songs are not in your phone or computer, they are broadcast from the internet radio station. So any app you download that will play any music from your phone or computer already plays all the music from your phone or computer.
