January 09, 2007 (San Francisco) - In this era of 10 megapixel consumer cameras and50,000 song MP3 collections, Qnext Corp. today announced the release of anall-in-one broadcast and communications software product that sets a new standard inefficient Peer-to-Web capabilities. Qnext 3.0 introduces two new features that willrevolutionize the way PC users communicate and share online. A Universal ContactList is the first of its kind to consolidate all online contacts across popularInstant Messenger and email networks into a single list. A second feature allowsusers to share unlimited amounts of music, photos, and files with anyone on thatlist via a simple web link; content is instantly streamed directly from the senderÂ'sPC to the recipientÂ's web browser.
The Universal Contact List leverages QnextÂ's content sharing functionality to makeWebcasting photos, music and any large data file as simple as sending an email or anInstant Message. Vastly superior to simple file sharing, a Qnext Webcast delivers arich media experience for the recipient.
Photo Webcasts let recipients browse thumbnails in an elegant, yet familiar andeasy-to-use interface, run a slideshow, and download originals with permission.Music Webcasts allow recipients to instantly listen to playlists or browse andlisten to the ownerÂ's entire library by artist, album, or genre from literallyanywhere in the world that they have email access. File Webcasts give instantdownload access to any type or size of file or folder.
 User-generated content is exploding and your PC has become the digital hub for bothcontent and the people you want to share and communicate with, says Qnext CEO ChrisStrachan.  Our goal is to provide the fastest and most direct way to share the bestcommunication and digital media experience with any online contact.Â
Previewed at Macworld 2007, Qnext 3.0 features an industry breakthrough that for thefirst time enables users to send Webcast links in Instant Messages and emails thatthe recipient can then open to view shared content using a standard web browserwithout having Qnext installed.
 For this release, we focused on ease of use and quality of experience, says QnextProduct Manager Michael Bacher.  We wanted to ensure the user was never more than afew clicks away from talking or sharing with any contact. This means bringing everycontact to one place and making sharing as easy as pointing at content on your harddrive to make it accessible to the audience of your choice.Â
The Qnext communication suite also includes Universal Instant Messaging, emailing,4-way Video Chat and 8-way Voice Chat. Qnext 3.0 is compatible with Windows, Mac,and Linux, and is available by free download later this month at www.qnext.com.
