Chapter 5 - Input

The software would require two types of user input. The first would be over the web-based product. The user would be able to input information using a basic keyboard. This input technology is found with every laptop/desktop computer, so it wouldn't limit the user's ability to input information to the server.

I intend this product to also be available on smartphones, such as the iPhone. In this case, the input would be from the touch-screen on the phone. Using the onscreen keyboard, the user would be able to enter the band name they are looking to find album information on.

In terms of the plug-in software, the data input would come from the software it is being plugged in to. For example, if using an iTunes plugin, the data would most likely come from XML data straight from iTunes.
