That's a serious problem for any kind of system. Sound Hound got
its start by recognizing melodies, which got a lot of attention. (04)
For Q/A, I'd also mention that it's competing with Wolfram Alpha
(but they might already be licensing Wolfram Alpha). Try typing
the Hound sentences to http://www.wolframalpha.com/ (05)
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfram_Alpha

That's a lot of competition. (07)
