Stream music from Google Docs with Cloud Music
“With the advent of the smartphones, streaming media has reached new potential. No longer do you have to worry about whether or not you copied that newest album to your iPod: as long as you’ve got a wireless connection, you can probably use an app to play it back right from your home computer.
“iPhone app Cloud Music attempts to make this streaming even easier. Instead of having to set up software on your home computer to serve up your media, Cloud Music can stream right from a free Google Docs account. Earlier this year, Google added the ability to upload files of any type to your Google Docs account—that includes music files too.”
How Google's music-streaming venture will change the gadget and entertainment worlds forever.
“While the iPod has come to symbolize the digital music age, it’s iTunes that’s allowed Apple to control the musical marketplace. iTunes has a nice interface, it’s easy to learn, and it’s ubiquitous—it ships with every Mac, and it’s one of the most downloaded Windows programs around. Other companies may make great phones and music players, but they don’t have the desktop software to sync your music, apps, and photos. That’s why Palm worked up a hack last year to connect its phones to iTunes—and why Apple quickly shut down the workaround.”
