Keeping track of the music stored on various computers and mobile devices can be a pain. This week, Amazon unveiled Cloud Drive and Cloud Player, two services that let you store music in the cloud and access it from any Web browser or Android device. You can upload your music library to the Cloud Drive from a Mac or PC, or buy songs on Amazon’s MP3 Store and save it to the drive. Then, you can use Cloud Player to create playlists and stream tunes from a computer or mobile device that runs on the Android operating system. (As of now, you cannot upload songs from mobile devices.)
How much does it cost? You’ll get 5GB of free Cloud Drive storage for free. (Purchases from Amazon’s MP3 Store are stored for free and do not count against your quota.) After that, plans range from $20 a year for 20GB of storage to $1,000 a year for 1,000GB of storage. Amazon is currently running a promotion that gives you 20GB of storage free for a year if you buy an album from the Amazon MP3 Store.
It?s been a week since the launch of Windows Intune and we?re seeing customers around the world trying our new cloud service for better PC management and security and taking advantage of the Windows 7 Enterprise upgrade rights that are included.
We?ve also gotten a lot of questions of Windows Intune and how it works. So I want to tell you how you can learn more and get your questions answered.
Tomorrow, Thurs., March 31 at 9:00 a.m. PST Microsoft Technical Fellow Mark Russinovich will be hosting a virtual roundtable, the Windows Intune Technology Tune-up. Joining him on the panel will be customers and partners using Windows Intune: Jeff Gargas, IT Director or Robinson Engineering; Ed Roberts, President of Lethos Consulting; and Fred Beyer, IT Director Infrastructure and Desktop Support with Cybershift. Microsoft panelists will include David Kays, Director of Engineering for Windows Intune; Stephen Rose, Windows IT pro Community Manager and me.
This virtual roundtable event is your chance to ask a panel of IT professionals and Windows Intune experts your questions about cloud-based PC management. We?ll be discussing best practices in PC management, the challenges of protecting and supporting remote users and their experience with Windows Intune. This event will include product demonstrations, how-to tips and tricks, and live Q&A.
We hope you can join us.
For more information on Windows Intune, check out the Windows for Your Business Blog, the Press Release and News Center story from last week. IT professionals interested should also check out the Windows Intune Zone on Springboard.There?s also some good information on potential cost savings in an IDC study and you can hear more from our customers and partners on the Windows Intune Web site.

"You won't like me when I'm angry...birds"
Angry Birds the movie is coming your way, and it will be directed by Transformers director Michael Bay.
Well, that's if the movie trailer that has emerged online isn't a spoof that is. And we have more than a sneaking suspicion that it might be.
The hilarious trailer is the work of game-parody guru Rooster Teeth and is described as "Fight or Flight - The war to end all wars".
It's brilliant we know - but it doesn't quite beat the Joe Nicolosi Super Mario Bros. effort to the title of "Best gaming-based movie spoof ever". Although it's a close contest.
Angry Birds the movie - (Not) coming to a cinema near you soon.

Worst promo video ever?
All the ingredients are there for a successful Big Bang Theory rip-off. A cooler looking geek to play Leonard; an uptight, slick-haired skinny guy to play Sheldon; a pumpkin pie-haircutted, lumberjack shirt wearing chap to play Howard; and a hot-girl to play Penny.
All that's missing is the laughs, and quite a lot of talent.
In what has to be one of the worst promos we've ever seen for a new device, here's Asus getting comedy, and its target demographic, very wrong indeed.
The terrible Asus Eee Pad Transformer video has just gone live on the company's YouTube channel and worryingly, is labelled episode 1.
Please, don't let there be an episode 2.

French HTC tweet signals arrival
Mon nom est Pocket-lint. Je vis ? Londres. O? se trouve le plus proche des toilettes publiques?
That's pretty much all of Pocket-lint's French vocabulary exhausted right there. But luckily, through the magic of Google Translate we can turn this tweet from HTC France:
"Un HTC Evo 3D pour la France ?a vous dit ? Nous oui ! Et m?me qu'il garde le m?me nom ;) Date de dispo non confirm?e."
Into:
"HTC for France Evo 3D anyone? Yes we are! And it even keeps the same name ;) Availability date unconfirmed."
So there you have it. The autostereoscopic handset that Pocket-lint got hands on with over in Orlando at CTIA is Europe-bound, and will even be rocking the same moniker.
If you missed our CTIA coverage, and need filling in on all the juicy Evo 3D specs, we're talking about a handset with a 3D-ready 4.3-inch qHD 960x540 packing display, a 1.2GHz dual core CPU, two 5-megapixel snappers around the back and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing cam, with 1080p video recording in 2D and 720p recording in 3D.?
The phone has HDMI out and comes with DLNA support for streaming content to your PC. It also has 4GB of internal memory, 1GB of RAM, a microSD slot, integrated GPS, a 1730mAh Lithium-ion battery and it will be the first 3D handset pre-loaded with the Blockbuster On Demand.
In short, it's a feature ridden Android monster.
We'll update you as soon as we hear anything UK specific.
