Start-Up ZumoDrive to Consume Personal Content in iTunes, iPhoto and Other Media Applications

Across all user's devices

ZumoDrive, the personal content mover that brings consumers’ content to all their devices, launched a new version of its service that makes it easier to have music playlists, photo albums and document folders accessible at any time on any device. The enhanced service is an addition to users’ second and third devices, as it instantly populates them with all one’s personal content while eliminating the need for traditional synchronization and the associated tedium and inefficiency involved.

ZumoDrive is a centralized storage location in the cloud that integrates so tightly with netbooks, tablets, smartphones and standard computers that all of a user’s personal content becomes instantly available on these devices even if the content is not stored there locally and without any drop in quality of the media experience. For example, users may rely on ZumoDrive to keep their iTunes music and playlists in sync across multiple devices. Their music libraries will then be updated across their devices (and playable in iTunes) whenever new music is added anywhere, without wires or content duplication and with maximum storage and bandwidth efficiency.

"We are quickly moving to a world where people have a primary computer and multiple mobile devices. People need a way to quickly and easily move all their media between these devices," said David Zhao, CEO of Zecter. "ZumoDrive is a simple, fast service that allows consumers to have all their photos, music, and videos with them all the time on all their devices."

New features in ZumoDrive’s latest release include:

  • Folder linking – link any folder to ZumoDrive just once and all additions and changes to the folder will then be reflected in ZumoDrive forever.
  • Content auto detection – eliminate the need to search for content; ZumoDrive automatically detects content on any device and asks users if they want it linked to ZumoDrive.
  • Improved iPhone app – supersize your iPhone and carry all of your music, photos and documents with you.
  • Playlist syncing – listen to iTunes playlists on netbooks, tablets and smartphones, even if they were created on another PC.
  • Photo albums – easily turn any folders with pictures into web albums that are immediately shareable through ZumoDrive. Photos from iPhoto and Picasa will be linked to ZumoDrive automatically.
