Amazon Launches Cloud Player App For iPhone

More than a year after Amazon introduced its Cloud Drive and Cloud Player services as it was racing to beat Apple’s iCloud services to market, the company has now announced the release of a native Cloud Player app [App Store] for iPhone and iPod touch.

Customers using the Amazon Cloud Player App can stream, download, and manage their music in the cloud, eliminating the need to download files before playing them. With this new app, customers have full access to their Cloud Playermusic libraries and also can seamlessly add playlists that are currently on their iPhone or iPod touch.

iPad access to Amazon Cloud Player has been available since last July as a device-optimized web player, with the iPhone and iPod touch also having had partial compatibility.
