Putting Audio and Video Files on the Amazon S3 Network

by Jack Humphrey on Feb 12

This is a software review of Mike Stewart’s new “S3 Media Player” software.  Mike is my personal go-to guy when it comes to audio – video production for the web.

If you’ve ever tried to get away from YouTube and 3rd party podcasting services to serve your own audio and video in your own player on your sites, blogs, social profiles and elsewhere, I know you’ve had a hard time with it.  It sucks.  Seriously, it’s been the bane of my existence having to have other people deal with getting my audio and video to work for me when I don’t want to use YouTube and podcasting services.

Mike’s software, which I demo below with a video produced by me and served from my Amazon S3 account with S3 Media Player, simply rocks.  Flat out. I’d have paid 10 times as much to get rid of this time-sucking, infuriating problem of serving audio and video on my own terms through Amazon S3. (Don’t tell Mike though!)

    Hi Jack,

    Thanks for the quick review. Funny how timing is. I signed up for the amazon S3 service the other day. As always, I like to learn about new tools that makes my life easier and your blog always provides that!

    I always enjoy learning what other people think about Amazon Web Services and how they use them. Check out my very own tool CloudBerry Explorer that helps to
    manage S3 on Windows . It is a freeware. http://cloudberrylab.com/
