In their own words
AudioTag
AudioTag identifies music from uploaded clips, complete songs, video files, and links to YouTube or other video-sharing services. It returns track, artist, and album details and can separate multiple songs in one recording with their time intervals. Supported formats include WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC, FLV, AMR, and MP4. Recognition uses proprietary patented acoustic fingerprinting against a music-fingerprint database, matching the same sound rather than merely similar melodies. The homepage reports 47,802,442 tracks, 11,628,927 albums, and 2,450,640 artists. AudioTag is available through a browser and API; the API lets other systems automate recognition. The free service is for non-commercial use. Its free API plan provides up to three hours of audio monthly and requires an account. AudioTag says payment begins only after that allowance is exhausted and the user initiates payment, with no subscriptions.
