ParkVu Announces Music WithMe App for BlackBerry Smartphones

LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 24 /PRNewswire/ -- ParkVu, innovators in making media truly mobile, today announced Music WithMe for BlackBerry^* smartphones. Music WithMe wirelessly syncs users' iTunes playlists with their smartphone, eliminating the need for a USB connection or secondary portable music playing device. Music WithMe provides the easiest way for smartphone owners to have their favorite music with them on the go.

Using a cellular network or Wi-Fi connection, BlackBerry smartphone owners can automatically and wirelessly download music files from their iTunes collection to their device anytime, anywhere. Unlike streaming solutions, once music is downloaded, no wireless connection is required meaning no more data is used – saving money and battery power and providing a dependable music listening experience regardless of cellular reception. Users can sync as much music from their iTunes library as their BlackBerry smartphone can store.

"We are extremely excited to introduce Music WithMe to the BlackBerry smartphone community," said Terry Goertz, co-CEO of ParkVu. "Music WithMe provides smartphone owners with the easiest way to get your iTunes music on your smartphone and keep it updated – without the hassle of USB cables."

From within the app, users select which iTunes playlists they want stored on their BlackBerry smartphone. Music WithMe then works with iTunes on the PC to ensure that any changes made to the playlists are automatically reflected on their BlackBerry smartphone.

Music WithMe does not have to be open on the device to sync with iTunes. When the desired playlists are selected, the settings are stored directly on the BlackBerry smartphone. Using BlackBerry smartphone's native media player, users can listen to their favorite songs from iTunes directly on their device.

Availability

Music WithMe is available at BlackBerry App World for a one-time fee of $14.99 after a free 30-day trial.
