Amazon Cloud Player-Play Your Music Everywhere

March 29, 2011 Tech

The following is featured on amazon.com . It introduces Amazon latest feature the Amazon Cloud Player. The Amazon Cloud Player gives current users 5GBs of storage on their Cloud Drive. There are additional plans one can buy ranging from 20GBS-1000GBS. Mainly this storage is used for,but not limited to, music. You are then able to access the music( or other files) from your computer or Android device. The Amazon MP3 android app now has an option to access you music on the cloud. This allows you to create you own music streaming player. This is another huge step for amazon. This also gives android a huge advantage. The Prime Instant Video, Amazon Android App Store( with a free app a day), and now Amazon Cloud Player have been huge announcements. I look forward to what amazon has in store for the rest of the year or if they have shown their hands early. I am hoping an app for Prime Instant Videos will be in the future for android. These steps also help with my theory of an android based tablet by Amazon.

UPDATE: If you BuyÂ any album from Amazon MP3 Store, get automatically upgraded to 20GB. Link for more info Click Here.

Android Vs iPhone Vs Blackberry?

November 5, 2010 Tech

This is a little comic image that has been going around the internet, mainly the smartphone review sites, and I for one find it hilarious. Honestly I do not know who was the first person to post this so I sadly can’t give credit, but its all over the tech sites. I personally think this is pretty accurate. Many people know I am a loyal Android fan/ user. I use to be a blackberry guy before that and own an iPod Touch so I’ve had experience with all platforms. Mainly I wanted to share this to hopefully give you a good laugh. With that said I am interested if you think this seems accurate or not. Leave a comment giving your opinion.
