If you haven't used Google Desktop before .... it's a program that gives you easy access to information on your local machine and from the web. Google Desktop makes searching your own email, files, music, and photos as easy as searching the web with Google. Anyone can download it for free. There are versions for all platforms (Mac, Windows, and Linux).

The developers have already submitted the MP3tunes Gadget to Google. And, as soon as they add it to the Gadget web site, we'll post a link. Here are a few more screenshots:

Send videos from your Locker to any mobile phone

If you've ever wanted a funny or musical video on your mobile phone to show others or watch while traveling about it's now simple with MP3tunes and your personal Locker. Open your Locker, find a video then right-click on it and select "Load to: Mobile" Enter in the telephone number (be sure and include the country code) and we'll send the video to your phone. The video is optimized for a phone's bandwidth and screen size automatically. (This technique will also work for audio files.)

To add video to your account use LockerSync or DownloadHelper. (NOTE: This will work on any phone which has a data connection to load the video except an iphone because Apple locks them up. Don't fret iphone users we'll have our iphone app out shortly so you can play too.)

All new video optimized web interface!

Video files are now being support in your Locker and we just added significant new features to the web player to make it easy to find your videos and play them back. Couple notable features:

• New Video category conveniently groups all your videos
• Visual icon indicates songs (blue musical note) and videos (red video icon)
• Now create playlists with mix of video and audio content.
  

Remember to get videos into your Locker use the LockerSync software or the popular Youtube tool DownloadHelper

We want to hear from you about what you think about our video support. Please send us email with your suggestions!

Think net radios are too expensive? Think again!

Internet radios have been around for a few years now. When they first came out they were very high-end and had a steep price tag to match. Most people saw them and thought: "Someday I'd like to get a net radio." Well, if you've been waiting for the price to fall to about $100, today is your lucky day.

We have been working with Audiovox/RCA and they have two new net radio models to choose from: the AR 200 and the AR 600i. Both of these integrate MP3tunes Locker support right out of the box! Now, you can play thousands of net stations as well as tunes from your Music Locker, wirelessly. And prices start at around $100. So, what are you waiting for? It's time to get a net radio.

Video on your phone? It's easier than ever!

You already know that your MP3tunes locker is the best place to store your personal music collection. Well now your locker can also store and play back videos - making it ever better!

There are many ways to add videos to your Locker:

• Use the webloader to upload individual video files.

• For multiple videos, use the free LockerSync program.

• For videos you find on the net, there is a free Firefox plug-in called DownloadHelper. (Like having a TiVo for YouTube!) DownloadHelper now has the ability to store downloaded videos right to your MP3tunes Locker with a single mouse click.

Learn How To Load
Videos to Your Locker:

Another innovative feature is the ability to send nearly any net video directly to your phone. Simply select "Send to Mobile" when you use DownloadHelper.

Learn How To Load
Videos to Your Mobile Phone:

Your MP3tunes locker is THE place to store your private music and video collection. Now you can keep entertaining, instructional and inspirational videos alongside your existing music collection – making the locker even more useful!

Try adding your own videos now and be sure to check out this page out for more info. If you don't already have a free Locker, sign up today.

Meta search engines for DRM-free MP3s

There are many meta search engines for free MP3 files, but none for commercial MP3s. (A meta search engine is one that searches multiple places and compiles the results.) Since there's a large variety in what stores carry we thought it would be useful to create an MP3 store search. Check out the newest version of MP3 Store Guide which now profiles more than 30 MP3 stores and includes a meta search feature. (We're also making the source code for the search engine available for all to use and improve.) Give it a try!

MP3tunes in your car?!?

Wireless delivery of music to your car is becoming a reality and Clarion is the early leader. Their touch screen MiND device (which was also on display at the Intel booth) will load your music collection to your car directly from the Internet. Rip a CD, download a track at your office computer and then have it automatically loaded to your dashboard using either your mobile phone's net connection or wifi. Behind the scene, songs are being copied from your personal music Locker to your car so you can listen to all your favorite tunes while cruising down the road. In addition to music syncing, the MiND also displays Google Maps and Traffic.com – all controlled from the net.
