One of the nicest features of mobile phones is that you can customize them to play your favorite songs as ringtones. It’s fun, shows off your personality, and works as a great conversation starter with the cute girl in the coffee shop too. It’s also the perfect way to identify friends, family, and coworkers when they call with just a few bars of music.
MyMusicCloud makes choosing your ringtone even easier with our nifty ringtone cropping feature. Grab a snippet of LMFAO, download a few country choruses from Blake Shelton, or assign a working-stiff classic like The Bangles’ “Manic Monday” to the boss.
Here’s how to do it. Just use your PC to log in to your account at www.MyMusicCloud.com, and select the song you want from your existing library (of course, you can also visit our store to pick your favorite from more than 11 Million tracks). Then, click the options icon that appears next to the song title and choose Create Ringtone. A pop-up box will allow you to play the song and pick the section you want to use – drag the markers to point the beginning and end of your ringtone and that’s it! Once you click the Ringtone button, MyMusicCloud saves your selection in your Ringtones folder in the navigation bar on the left.
Getting the ringtone on your phone is a snap. Actually, there’s nothing for you to do – once you’ve downloaded the MyMusicCloud app to your mobile, you’ll see your selection there in the Ringtones section, and can use it however you like.
This is just one of the many features of our cloud-based music delivery service, besides syncing all your favorite music across all your devices: PCs, tablets, mobile phones and more. Transfer your music from storage giant Dropbox, listen on- or off-line, view song lyrics, share song choices with friends on Facebook and access your account from anywhere in the world.
Not sure which song you want for your latest ringtone? To get you started, here are the top 10 ringtones of the week from Billboard.com:
10. Kip Moore: “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Truck”
9. Maroon 5 featuring Wiz Khalifa: “Payphone”
8. Justin Bieber: “Boyfriend”
7. Eric Church: “Springsteen”
6. LMFAO: “Sexy and I Know It”
5. Kelly Clarkson: “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)”
4. Luke Bryan: “Drunk on You”

Yummy iMac-shaped cupcakes, mounted Instagram galleries, and public tours inside the top-secret offices of Facebook and Gawker were just a few of the perks at this year’s Internet Week New York summit. Web stars like Tumblr’s David Karp and comics like Patton Oswalt mingled with the masses, while some of the 250 events tackled fun topics like internet dating, freestyle rapping and how to pitch the perfect cross-platform (TV, movie, Web, gaming, mobile) story.
The music and entertainment worlds are all abuzz with the phrase “cross-platforming,” but if you use MyMusicCloud, you’re already doing it. Cross-platforming simply means enjoying media, like music, photos, or TV shows, across different types of devices.
Our cloud-based music delivery service has been offering music lovers that freedom since we launched in September 2011. Remember when you were frustrated by your inability to sync your iTunes library from home with your work PC or Android phone? Because Apple wouldn’t let you have it your way, you were stuck pulling out your iPod, or worse: sitting in silence.
But with MyMusicCloud, you can keep your BlackBerry, Nokia, iPhone, Android, Sony Ericsson, or any other phone; hold on to your iMac, MacBook, net book, iPad, or PC. Your music collection is always available and in complete sync on all of your devices.
And you can even listen offline. Checking out Bruce Springsteen’s new single? Start it on one device, then seamlessly pick it up on another. Or share your favorite tunes on Facebook. Even double-check the lyrics with the click of a button.
So viva la internet and let the music play!
Remember when Mom ooohed and aahed over the macaroni necklace you made her in kindergarten? It was no Picasso, but she loved it because it was simple and heartfelt. This Mother’s Day, don’t spin your wheels needlessly trying to find the perfect Mother’s Day gifts for the moms in your life. Just make a Mother’s Day playlist of their favorite (or even your top 10!) songs.
It’s so easy with our cloud-based music delivery service. Once your music library is uploaded to our MyMusicCloud portal, you can pick and choose her favorite ballads, country music songs or musical showtunes from your collection, or browse our online music store for songs she’ll adore.
Is your mom wild about Mariah Carey? Can’t resist country crooner Martina McBride? Or maybe she loves the soundtrack from the musical “Dreamgirls”? They’re all in our store ready to download. Then simply create a playlist, select the song you want to add and click the “+” symbol to attach it.
In no time, you have a custom-mixed Mother’s Day soundtrack for your special lady. Play it when she wakes up Sunday morning, or on your way to brunch. What a cool and thoughtful surprise. Kind of like musical macaroni.
Not sure where her musical tastes fall? Here are some ideas to get you started:
10. You Are My Sunshine – Norman Blake
9. Little Girls – “Annie,” the Broadway Musical
8. You’ll Be In My Heart – Phil Collins
7. Que Sera Sera – Doris Day
6. In My Daughter’s Eyes – Martina McBride
5. I Hope You Dance – Lee Ann Womack
4. Already Gone – Sugarland
3. The Best Day – Taylor Swift
2. Mama’s Song – Carrie Underwood
1. Because You Loved Me – Celine Dion
Wishing you and the moms in your life a very Happy Mother’s Day.
Paying bills online or reading work emails is a lot more fun with your favorite songs playing in the background, isn’t it? But who wants to have a dozen browser windows open at once? Not us and we’re betting not you either. That’s why we’re helping you multitask with an exciting new product launch.
This week, MyMusicCloud is unveiling a new browser toolbar* to help you easily listen to your music collection, discover great music store promotions, and share songs with your Facebook friends without ever leaving the page you’re reading. No more juggling multiple tabs and windows while trying to play DJ.
Go ahead and give it a try. As a little thank you, we’ll even throw in 1 free gigabyte of music storage for our cloud-based music delivery service, just for trying the new toolbar app. (That’s more than 200 songs.)
But that’s not the only cool insider tool MyMusicCloud offers. Stumped by Nicki Minaj’s latest rhyme? Or trying to remember the words to the Beatles’ classic “I am the Walrus”? We make finding both of these things super easy: With the click of a button, we fetch the lyrics for you. No need to wonder, or open a separate browser window, or surf YouTube hoping someone transcribed the song accurately. Bam! It’s done.
And don’t forget, you can still sync your Dropbox music files with our cloud-based music delivery service. Rather than relying on an internet connection to stream songs every time you want to listen, you can play them offline too. Unlike cloud storage services on Google, Amazon, and Apple, Dropbox and MyMusicCloud are also available globally from Australia to Taiwan and beyond.
Tell us what you think of our new toolbar or any of these functions below.
*The toolbar is available for Windows OS users, and runs on Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers.
Want to spark some party chatter or get a rousing Facebook debate going? Ask your friends to recommend their favorite movie soundtracks.
Faster than you can say “Twilight,” you’ll have more movie titles than you can shake a clove of garlic at. From the rich, violet funk of Prince’s “Purple Rain” to the giddy ‘60s love songs from “Dirty Dancing,” people can’t help raving about their cinema darlings.
With MyMusicCloud, you can even hear your new finds before you exit the movie theater. Our cloud-based music delivery system has an online music store where you can search, find and download new soundtracks straight to almost any portable device.
You can even alert your Facebook friends to your new discoveries with our convenient “Share” button. Tell them you’re enjoying the soundtrack to “The Hunger Games” or bopping along to an old favorite like “Summer Lovin’” from “Grease.”
Or throw a themed DVD-watching party at home and pre-mix a playlist with MyMusicCloud showcasing all your favorite romantic comedy, ‘70s disco or even horror movie music. Your friends will be amazed!
Here are some of our favorite movie soundtracks to get you started:
1. Pulp Fiction: Shimmy like John & Uma to this eclectic rock mix.
2. Grease: Bubbly high-school pop from the T-Birds and the Pink Ladies.
3. Trainspotting: Mesmerizing alt rock from Iggy Pop, Blur, and Underworld.
4. A Hard Day’s Night: Romp along with Beatles classics.
5. Purple Rain: Dance-happy ‘80s hits from his Royal Purpleness.
6. Dirty Dancing: Have the time of your life with this ode to ‘60s pop.
7. Once: Acoustic harmonies for romantics.
8. Singles: The best of ‘90s grunge.
9. The Graduate: Haunting folk from Simon & Garfunkel.
10. Saturday Night Fever: Hip-shaking fun with the Bee Gees.

Here at MyMusicCloud, we love marketing our cloud-based music delivery service. In the process, we get to discover new artists, receive comments from satisfied customers, and even follow music festivals around the world.
But our own marketing doesn’t hold a candle to yours. We can brag, get the word out, and circulate all of the fun that’s inherent in a world filled with accessible, awesome, diverse, and up-to-date music. But the best testimonial comes from you. Your friends and family know you, and they trust you. Put in a good word for our music service to your friends and family, and it’s 100 times stronger than anything we can say about ourselves. Wouldn’t you agree?
That’s why we’re asking you to help us go viral. Invite your friends using our special link on Facebook, Twitter, email, and MyMusicCloud web app. And we’ll thank you for it.
See, here’s the deal:
Share away, and get rewarded with free storage. And then smile as your friends and family thank you for another wonderful recommendation. Log into your account, click on the promo banner on the top right, and spread the word!
Here at MyMusicCloud, we’re always looking for fresh, undiscovered music you want to share and take with you using our cloud-based music delivery service. That’s why we’re excited to introduce you to underground NYC band More Than Fate.
Born from the rough-and-tumble NYC music scene, this Astoria foursome plays “rock music, plain and simple,” says lead guitarist Carlos Casados. The group includes drummer Phil Lherisson and vocalist Eddie Slate (both formerly of the band Ampithy) with Jack McLeod on bass guitar.
Taking their name from the soaring Eye Empire song “More Than Fate,” they’re part of a new breed of alternative rock. Finding musical talent in the NYC area isn’t difficult, Eddie admits, “the difficulty lies in finding other dedicated musicians that mesh well together.”
Despite their diverse musical backgrounds, “as soon as we started, it was an instant musical bond. It was like we knew exactly what was on each other’s minds,” Phill adds.
Have you ever bonded or forged new friendships through music? The great thing about discovering a little-known band like More Than Fate is sharing it with your friends. With MyMusicCloud, you can sync your favorite bands’ albums across any mobile phone, PCs, Macs, tablets and other devices, and even share what you’re listening to on Facebook with friends around the world.
On Saturday, April 7, New Yorkers can hear More Than Fate live when they perform at the Studio in New York’s Webster Music Hall, 125 E. 11th St, with headliners The Day Will Come, and fellow bands When All Else Fails, Blacken The Fallen, We The Living and Live For Today. For ticket prices and information, visit Webster Music Hall online.
Check out their website and Facebook page, enjoy the gig, and tell us what you think

Dear Reader, we at MyMusicCloud’s marketing team are writing to share an exciting series of events at MyMusicCloud, and our parent company, TriPlay.
Marketing MyMusicCloud is a ton of fun: it’s a great product, it’s in an exciting space, and it provides enormous benefits to the end user: you. You can sync your music throughout all devices, regardless of manufacturer or operating system. Once you do, you get to take your music with you anytime, anywhere, and on any device.
Having said that, we all know we are up against some fierce competition. MyMusicCloud is the David to Apple’s, Google’s and Amazon’s Goliath. While those three giants spend hundreds of millions of dollars to reach the top of your mind, we at MyMusicCloud get, well, a slightly lower budget. We fight to get every single one of our users. And although our usership hovers at a very respectable number, MyMusicCloud is still one of the music world’s best kept secrets.
Then came last week. On Monday, our site’s traffic spiked, and our registration numbers expanded tenfold. Now, like any good website in the digital age, we track our metrics. But we had no idea what was driving this spike. Whatever it was, we wanted to do it again!
We started sniffing around. Days later, with the help of Percepture, our PR firm, we tracked down the source: an amazing review on BBC World News, in “Clicks” by Kate Russell. Here is the clip from the broadcast for you to enjoy:
Since you are reading this, you are in on the secret. Please know that we love having you with us, and our community is expanding every day. Tell your friends! Help us spread the word, and you will be rewarded (more on that next time!)…
Are you one of the 300 million new mobile phone users who have switched to an Android phone? If so, you’re going to need a place to store your music, and MyMusicCloud is just the app you need.
With MyMusicCloud, you can take your music collection anywhere: to the beach, park, and even places you’re stuck waiting for hours, like doctor’s offices or the DMV. Our cloud-based delivery service syncs all your music effortlessly across any device or platform, from your PC to your Droid phone, around the world. Access your favorite house music even if you’re offline on the subway.
Android phones are now the fastest-selling phones on the planet. On a blog post from February 2012, Google’s senior vice president of mobile, Andy Rubin, revealed that Google’s phone partners (HTC, LG Electronics, Motorola and Samsung) have activated “over 850,000 phones and tablets per day” – up from 500,000 per day in June 2011.
At MyMusicCloud, we welcome all the brand-new Android users. But Apple, Blackberry, and Nokia fans needn’t feel left out, because our cloud-based music delivery service works just as smoothly across your operating systems too.
Have your music library synced across any device, play your music on one device and pick up where you left on another, and create and play customized playlists from almost anywhere: whether you’re running at the gym to Maroon 5, perking up your morning commute with Michael Bublé, or playing your favorite Adele tunes to a friend’s wine and book party.
Tell us: Which device do you like to play your music on and why?
