Revolutionary Napster-Like Application Unveiled; Features File Sharing Integrated with AOL Instant Messaging
ALBANY, N.Y., Aug. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- In the midst of uncertainty about the
future of Napster and its millions of devotees, a new Napster-like Internet
application has been developed in Troy, N.Y., and unveiled at the website,
Aimster.com. The application, called Aimster, is being hailed by its
developers as "the first Napster-like file sharing integrated with AOL Instant
Messaging."
Johnny Deep, author of several Internet-related books and spokesperson for
the developers, said, "Aimster reflects a significant step toward implementing
universal file-sharing because for the first time users can search and share
files within circles of online friends."
Aimster's integration with AOL Instant Messaging allows users to search
and share files exclusively with their AOL Instant Messaging "buddies," and
thereby enjoy greater privacy and security protections. Unlike Napster,
Aimster gives users significantly more control over who can access their
shared files and computers, and also lets users share not only music but any
personal content.
"There is huge market potential for tools that allow people and businesses
to easily setup private peer-to-peer networks," said Jeff Nixon of Interactive
Capital Partners. "It's the next natural evolution in personal communications
after email and instant messaging and it helps further unlock the most
powerful part of the network, the knowledge of each person that makes up the
network."
"Aimster brings together two of the most powerful Internet applications
out there today," said Mr. Deep. "The combination of file-sharing and instant
messaging allows people to create their own instant private networks."
"This application is the future of the Internet. Its users will find it
to be fun, easy -- and addictive," he said.
Aimster is based on a patent-pending intelligent switching technology
developed by a newly formed Troy, N.Y. communications company. Aimster is
available for Windows 95/98/NT/2000 and can be freely downloaded from
aimster.com.
