Bop.fm lands $2M for its cross-platform music sharing service

According to multiple reports, streaming music aggregator Bop.fm has secured $2 million in Seed funding from Charles River Ventures. The company’s service, which enables users to share music playlists across multiple streaming providers (Spotify, Beats Music, etc.), was featured on StartUp Beat few weeks ago. Co-founder Shehzad Daredia described Bop.fm as the ‘Kayak for music,’ because of its mission to enable users to bypass the walled gardens of individual music services when sharing tracks.

The San Francisco-based startup was founded last year by Daredia and Stefan Gomez, and is graduate of the Y Combinator accelerator’s Summer 2013 class.
