Twitter teams with SoundCloud to make musical tweets

The first to sign up as a partner for the music streaming service is SoundCloud, a Berlin-based music streaming service, which is offering its full catalogue for streaming via tweets.

A previous Twitter music app, designed to generate more traffic from music-minded users, failed to catch on and was discontinued in April 2013. There was later speculation Twitter might even take over SoundCloud, but the micro-blogging company has denied such ambitions.
