Leading UK music magazine the NME has launched their official iPhone app. The application is priced at £1.19 and allows users to personalise their music news experiences. I really wonder how many people will choose to buy this application, when there are so many free options available.

The app lets users browse news, galleries and videos from the NME.com website, and tag individual artists to receive alerts on their activities. The app supports offline browsing and Twitter/Facebook sharing too.

The application is currently only on the iPhone and iPod Touch, but im sure they will develop an iPad version soon enough.
