Some more details on My Music Quiz
My Music Quiz (MMQ) is a PC based audio game that challenges you and your friends to identify tracks from your music collection, extracted as short samples and played in fiendish ways. For example, can you identify your favorite track and artist from a 1 second random sample?
The quiz is extremely configurable, ranging from simple setup where you choose a level of quiz difficulty and just hit play, to fully customized where you can vary everything. This includes how many questions and rounds, how many samples play simultaneously, specific tracks you want to play and much more.
Don’t worry if your friends are feeling left out. “It’s all your music, I don’t know it.” MMQ supports “Guest Media”. It’s as simple as plugging your friend’s MP3 player into the PC, adding the tracks to a playlist, then they will play directly from the MP3 player.
