Hunter's comment
Unilateral hearing loss (UHL) or single-sided deafness (SSD) is a type of hearing impairment where there is normal hearing in one ear and impaired hearing in the other ear.
- Wikipedia
It's not as bad as being deaf. But when someone need to listen to music in private, there really is no proper way to enjoy music. Some would just call it a first world problem. But if technology can help some people have a better experience (an experience as good as he rest of us are having) I think it's a great thing
A 1998 study of schoolchildren found that per thousand, 6-12 had some form of unilateral hearing loss and 0-5 had moderate to profound unilateral hearing loss.

Just scale those numbers to over 7 billion people and we have an app that could positively affect millions. Unfortunately the monaural playback function requires you to have your music stored on the device. It doesn't work over the cloud.

Nice hunt. It targets a small number of people and also, imo, not a major problem. However, as you said, it provides people with hearing loss an equal experience. Brining people with uhl and normal hearing at the same level, is worthy of an upvote.

Hearing impairment is a big problem for people, because hearing is one of the most important elements in the process of communication and the invention of devices that can help people to hear something wonderful, as for this application is very beautiful where a person with hearing impairment or weakness can listen to music Like other people without audio problems, there are other applications that work on the same thing with the use of music in the cloud.
