Soundhound is great for music discovery. I love being able to bookmark songs that I look up.

SoundHound offers an unlimited number of song identifications, while Shazam limits you to 5 a month. So I would go with SoundHound.

Alternative of soundhound under linux is MIDOMI using this link:

http://www.midomi.com/objects/midomiLandingVoiceSearch.swf

because the official homepage "www.midomi.com" does not work properly under linux.
