Called Music Stories, the new post format “allows people to listen to a 30-second preview of the shared song (or album) while on Facebook.”
Music Stories currently supports Apple Music or Spotify, depending on the link source. Listeners can then buy the song or have it to the music service they saw it on.
Facebook explained the system further:
The previews from Apple Music and iTunes are available directly through Facebook. If you want more, click through to stream full tracks on Apple Music or add music to your library with a single click to purchase through the iTunes store.
