Abstract
The disclosure relates to systems and methods for facilitating co-play and download of artist specific client applications via user-provided playlists that includes songs playable only through a respective artist specific client application. A playlist may include songs from a plurality of different artist specific applications. A given artist specific application may be created and branded for a particular artist, whose music may be playable only through a corresponding artist specific application. Because a given song may only be played/accessed from a corresponding artist specific application, a playlist that includes songs from different artist specific applications may cause artist specific applications to be activated (e.g., opened, placed in the foreground, etc.) when a song included therein is next in line to be played. Artist specific applications that have already played a song in the playlist may be de-activated (e.g., closed, placed in the background, etc.).
