SAN DIEGO -- January 16,
2006
–– Streamload®,
a leading provider of online digital media services, today
announced worldwide availability of Streamload MediaMax, the
world’s largest online media center. Streamload MediaMax offers
a suite of services that allow users to centrally store,
organize, access, and share their personal media collections
online. As of today, subscribers can now get the standard
Streamload MediaMax account with 25 GB of online storage and
access to five integrated media-sharing and locker services
free. Users may upgrade to industry leading 250 GB of online
storage space for $9.95 per month.
Among its new offerings, Streamload MediaMax features
VideoShare, the
first full-quality video sharing service of its kind. It
enables users to create video albums, preview their videos via
automatically created thumbnails, and share full-quality video
files (including high-definition video) as easily as they send
email. For the first time, people have the freedom and tools to
share their home videos and photos in full-quality original
formats and also securely access
their music, TV shows and movie recordings remotely via
an Internet-connected TV, PC, or Personal Media Center device.
“Many camcorder users are frustrated when it comes to sharing
videos due to capacity and file-size limitations and steep
learning curves,” said Steve Iverson, president and CEO of
Streamload. “We have removed capacity limits and created a
service that is so easy to use that anyone can better enjoy and
manage their entire digital media collection in one central,
secure, and always accessible place. Our free service, powered
by our proprietary file storage technology, is more compelling
than any paid-subscription service available today.”
Streamload MediaMax is an evolution of Streamload’s original,
award-winning Internet service with enhanced features, a simpler
interface, and more powerful tools. In addition to VideoShare,
new features include:
-
PhotoShare
-- One-click photo sharing
-
Music, TV
and Movie Lockers for automatically organizing files
-
File
Manager – for managing personal and business files
-
Tagging
-
Server-side transcoding – one-click file format conversions
-
Access to
personal files anytime, anywhere, with an Internet
connection
Streamload MediaMax runs on Windows®, Mac OS and Linux. The

storage. The premium service gives subscribers full-featured
access with 250 GB of storage for $9.95 per month (when paid
annually.) Streamload MediaMax subscriptions and more
