### Smart Music Link
- URL: https://bigbadbird.music/tools/smart-link
- Description: Free Songwhip alternative for indie musicians and music listeners. Search any song by name and get one shareable link that opens on every streaming platform (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, and more). Type-to-search autocomplete is the headline feature, you don't need a Spotify or Apple Music URL to start, and you don't need to be on the same platform as the people you're sharing with. Useful for musicians promoting their own releases and for anyone sharing songs with friends on different streaming apps. URL pasting also supported as a secondary entry method.
- Category: Sharing
- Cost: Free
- Replaces: Songwhip (discontinued mid-2024 after Sony Music acquisition)
