Didiom
Didiom was a digital media company that specialized in the development of streaming media applications and wireless content delivery platforms. Built on peer-to-peer placeshifting technology, the company’s flagship product allowed customers to stream their home computer’s audio collection to their phone wirelessly, eliminating the need for data cables and memory cards. With two million songs under its management, Didiom previously launched an on-device music store that allowed customers to name their own prices for music downloads. In February 2011, Didiom was acquired by SnapOne, Inc. (formerly Exclaim Mobility, Inc.)〔(Thumbplay and Didiom sales show cloud music is not all silver lining (The Guardian) )〕
==History==
Didiom, an acronym for “Digital Distribution Of Music”, was founded by Ran Assaf in 2005.〔(No More Syncing: Didiom Streams Music to Your iPhone From Anywhere (New York Times) )〕 The company has developed a cloud-based content delivery platform and launched a music download service in 2007. The independent service allowed users to shop for full-track music downloads directly from their phone, and share music with friends wirelessly. The service’s most unique feature enabled users to name their own price for songs and albums, which leveraged Didiom’s adaptive bargaining algorithm that set retail prices dynamically.〔(Entrepreneurial Thinkers (Babson Magazine, P.41) )〕
In October 2008, Didiom launched a public beta test of a hybrid mobile service, that enabled BlackBerry and Windows phone owners to stream their iTunes library directly from their home computer to their phone wirelessly, for free, and also to buy music from Didiom's on-device MP3 store.〔(Elevator Pitch: Didiom plays your desktop music collection through your mobile (The Guardian) )〕 The majority of the music catalog that the company offered came from CD Baby,〔(Didiom Partners with CD Baby to Offer 2 Million DRM-Free Music Downloads on Mobile Devices (PRWeb) )〕 Finetunes,〔(Finetunes Strikes Didiom Deal (Billboard Magazine) )〕 and Phonofile.
In February 2010, the company concluded its beta test, shut down its MP3 store, and launched Didiom Pro, a freemium placeshifting service, using a subscription business model.〔(BlackBerry Travel Apps 10 Must-Have Downloads (CIO Magazine) )〕 Didiom Pro has offered a new set of mobile and desktop applications that allowed users to stream audio files from their computer to their iPhone, iPod Touch, BlackBerry, or Windows phone. The new service also enabled users to download their favorite music, podcasts and audiobooks to their mobile device wirelessly for offline listening, stream Windows Media DRM-protected content on demand and shuffle their audio collection over 3G or Wi-Fi. Prior to being acquired by Princeton-based Exclaim Mobility (now SnapOne, Inc.) in early 2011, Didiom's mobile applications were available for download from the App Store (iOS), BlackBerry App World, Windows Marketplace for Mobile, Verizon’s VCast App Store, and Samsung Apps.
