The BronyTunes HTML5 web app is what you'll use to access BronyTunes from your computer or tablet.  Accessing it is simple: just visit BronyTunes.com !  It provides access to BronyTunes Showcase, which highlights newly-released tracks, and gives access to them in an interface familiar to people who have used the iTunes Store.  It also provides a simpler "Library" mode, available with the library button in the upper-right.

iOS App[]

The BronyTunes iOS app is what you'll use to listen to BronyTunes on the go!  The current version is comparatively limited when put next to the HTML5 web app (only providing the Library and playback features of the web version), but a rather large update to the iOS app is in the works, so stay tuned!
