Cool New Product News for May

The Applian Advantage Club: A while back I asked some of you for your opinion about a “Members Only Club” – a club for Suite owners that would offer certain benefits to its members. Well we still plan on starting the club – it’s just taken a bit longer than we thought. We are redoing our website in the next month and once it’s done we will start the club. Please watch for an invitation. We are really excited to get this going.

<Replay Media Catcher 2.10: This first-ever streaming Flash Video Recorder was released in February and we have already improved it. Replay Media Catcher now includes automatic naming of captured videos, and can record, recognize and tag streaming MP3 files too. Version 2.10 will have the ability to capture more MP3 streams, as well as extract MP3 tracks from Shoutcast radio stations. If you haven’t tried this super easy recorder yet – you should. Just remember the secret to using Replay Media Catcher is that you need to open the program and hit “start recording” BEFORE even going to the website that you want to record.
Replay Media Catcher 2.10 will be available by June 1. Updates are free for existing customers.

Updates: We are never satisfied to leave well enough alone. We are constantly updating our programs. Why not add our updates page link to your RSS reader or bookmarked pages and check it once a week or so. That way you will always know the latest new features we have added to our programs.
