ZiT (BAWSAQ: ZIT) is a music identification system available via the cell phone in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V. The player can buy stocks from them at the Bawsaq.com website in GTA V.

Description

This system allows players to identify any song currently playing on their car radio by dialing 948-555-0100; an automated Message from Lazlow will ask you to let him hear the song. You will then receive a text message providing the name of the song and the artist. If signed up to the Rockstar Games Social Club, you'll also receive a (real) e-mail titled New Song From ZiT at Rockstar Games Social Club with the name of the song, artist, give you a link to iTunes and will save the song in a ZiT Player to give you a preview.

ZiT has an advertisement that can be heard in most radio stations in GTA IV.

Script

Announcer: Isn't it annoying when you hear a great song on the radio in Liberty City but the idiot DJ doesn't tell you who it is?

Male voice: Who was that?

Announcer: Find out the artist and the name of any song on the radio using ZiT.

Male voice: ZiT.

Announcer: The remarkable new service. Call us!

Second male voice: And we'll tell you what you're listening to based on a complicated listening system that also helps the government spy on you.

Third male voice: Go!

Announcer: Just dial ZIT-555-0100.

Female voice: 948-555-0100.

Announcer: And follow the instructions from our needy, washed-up celebrity.

Second male voice: So simple even a spotty teenager can do it.

Announcer: ZiT. Because we'll spot the record for you.
