SpiralFrog Makes Downloading Music Easier with Automatic Upgrade to
Windows Media Player 11
- Download Manager Eliminates Key Obstacle for Thousands of Music
Fans -
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) July 1, 2008 --
SpiralFrog™ (www.spiralfrog.com),
the free and legal music experience, is adding an automatic update
function in its download manager that will give hundreds of thousands of
music-hungry fans faster and easier access to SpiralFrog’s
huge library of free songs.
The system now seamlessly upgrades Windows XP users to Windows Media
Player 11 and makes it even easier to download music from the SpiralFrog
site. The updated Windows Media Player includes enhanced search and
media management technologies, a visually driven user interface, and
optimized support for portable music players. Both digital tracks and
music videos from SpiralFrog require at least Windows Media Player 10 to
play.
“SpiralFrog is about creating a complete music
experience, and offering the latest in Microsoft technology ensures that
the site is as easy to use as possible,” said
Joe Mohen, chairman of SpiralFrog.
The update requires no action on the part of existing members or first
time users. The SpiralFrog download manager automatically determines if
a user’s PC needs the upgrade and then
seamlessly downloads it.
SpiralFrog, which launched last September, has rapidly become an
alternative to illegal peer-to-peer piracy sites with more than 6
million monthly unique visitors. SpiralFrog licenses digitized tracks
from both major and independent labels and underlying composition rights
directly from music owners. Major brand advertising on the site covers
the costs for users, who can download an unlimited amount of songs and
videos for free.
How SpiralFrog Works
SpiralFrog enables anyone to download unlimited songs and music videos,
with new content added weekly. To access the free content, users must
only fill out a simple and quick registration form. As part of the
SpiralFrog experience, users see relevant, targeted advertising that
does not interfere with their enjoyment of music.
Songs and videos downloaded on SpiralFrog will play on Windows PCs
running XP and Vista. Members can download to their PCs and synchronize
their music with portable music players or music-enabled phones that
support Windows Media digital rights management.
