SEATTLE, WA, May 19, 2011 (Press-News.org) HomePipe Networks (http://www.homepipe.net), the leading innovator in digital content access and file sharing for the mobile community, today announced the release of the HomePipe 2.0 service, including its new SecureShare features, Collaborative Computing capabilities and A La Carte Playlist generation. The new offerings further demonstrate HomePipe's vision of on-the-go digital content access, offering an easy and secure way to tap into digital files from any device, without paying extra for unnecessary storage in the cloud.

With HomePipe, users have their digital files at their fingertips, regardless of file size or type, and independent of system or content location. By utilizing HomePipe's apps, users can access and share their digital assets simply and securely where they want, when they want, without the hassle of uploading, syncing or organizing files in the cloud.

HomePipe's enhanced mobility features include:

• HomePipe SecureShare: With SecureShare, HomePipe users can now easily share digital content with everyone in their network by importing contacts from Outlook, as well as Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail and other email providers directly into HomePipe. Enhanced security features enable users to protect sensitive information by providing selective access, and requiring specific recipients to login securely before viewing private files.

• Collaborative Computing: HomePipe eliminates the hassle of downloading, syncing and organizing documents in the cloud, or paying for expensive cloud storage. Using Apple , AndroidTM, and Windows Phone 7 devices, users can open any document from their hard drive, edit, and resave the document back into HomePipe. Once saved in HomePipe, any recipient can immediately and securely access the updated document - no drag and drop required.

• A La Carte Playlist Generation: HomePipe's new A La Carte Playlist capability enables users to generate playlists from multiple iTunes and MP3 libraries on the fly using Apple, Android, or Windows Phone 7 devices. With one click, HomePipe's app populates a list of all folders containing music files, and allows users to select from those folders creating a single, unique playlist. And please don't stop the music just to send a text. HomePipe's Now Playing feature enables users to stream music, or browse photos or documents, on Apple, Android, and Windows Phone 7 devices, while simultaneously using other applications.

"Everyday we're adding more devices and more content to our always-connected lives. But what happens when you're here and your content is there?" said Parvez Anandam, CTO and co-founder of HomePipe Networks. "HomePipe lets you access and share all of your photos, music, documents, your digital life, from wherever you are to wherever it resides. If the problem is access, then the solution should be access, not more storage."
