Download Accelerator Subscription Service

Speedbit is developing a unique Subscription Service that will offer rich media content (Music, Games, Movies and Software) through DAP.

DAP's innovative subscription service permitting users to subscribe to predefined channels that provide periodic updates of music files, games, video files, trailers, software and applications that may be offered by SpeedBit's partners from time to time.

Smooth user experience
The new subscription service incorporates a smooth user experience: once the user has subscribed to the channel, the new item (song, movie, software, game, news item, etc.) is sent directly to his or her PC according to the user's schedule preferences with no user intervention required.

A ready-to-use platform for online delivery of rich media content

With the new subscription service, DAP's client-side presence on a vast number of users' desktops is now equipped to establish a viable online subscription service. It offers owners of content such as software and game publishers, record companies, and film and video studios the dual advantages of not needing to develop such an application from scratch and being able to reach such a large user base with it already installed.
