Onkyo, MP3tunes Add Cloud Storage to Receivers

Onkyo has partnered with MP3tunes.com, giving Onkyo owners access to the service’s cloud-based Locker to store up to 400 songs for free.


Last week Onkyo announced a strategic partnership with Gibson Guitar, now it's cranking up its 2012 receivers with cloud storage.

Onkyo has announced plans to partner with MP3tunes.com, giving Onkyo owners access to the service’s cloud-based Locker that provides up to 2GB of music storage absolutely free. That 2GB should hold about 400 of your favorite songs. If that type of storage isn’t going to cut it, there are fee-based accounts, which start at $39.95 per year for 50GB.

Once your music is in the cloud, it can be streamed directly to any of Onkyo's 2012 network-capable receivers.

Onkyo says it is the first brand to add MP3tunes into the receiver mix.

“MP3tunes Locker is an easy and secure means to maintain this data, while providing easy access through an Onkyo receiver, computer, smartphone, or any of the many network capable devices that support MP3tunes,” says Paul Wasek, Onkyo’s national marketing and product planning manager.

Onkyo plans to add MP3Tunes capabilities as a standard feature on new Onkyo network-capable receivers starting in the first quarter of 2012.
