MobBase is a great platform that allows artists/bands and more the ability to easily and very inexpensively create a custom iPhone Application with streaming music, news, shows, purchase links, photos, videos and much, much more.  The dashboard is very easy to use and allows you to create a custom app in a matter of hours and then submit it directly to the iTunes App Store.  MobBase then takes care of all the accounting and statistics and the app keeps all your fans updated!

According to MobBase designing your app is easy:

Using your MobBase dashboard, you can add, manage, and update your app’s content in real-time. Pull in digital goodies like your videos, photos, news, and tweets, add MP3s, and link fans to your merch store. Add as much content as you like before you launch your app, and then keep fans engaged by adding more content once it’s live. Your fans will get these updates the next time they open your app.

We are in the process of creating and submitting an App for Coast 2 Coast Mixtapes that will not only stream music, but more importantly keep fans updated on all the new releases through the News feed feature, sending mixtape releases directly to fans on their mobile devices.
