14 DAY TRIAL // Sony Network Entertainment International LLC is out with a new version of the Music Unlimited application that allows subscribers to download playlists, albums, and individual songs to their iPhone and iPod touch.
New in version 1.3.1 is offline playback support, a brand-new high-quality audio streaming option (which delivers audio in 320kbps AAC format), as well as a new “tray style” global menu.
According to the official press statement accompanying the update, this new release also includes “improved performance,” though the changelog makes no mentioning of any fixed bugs. Seems they were only referring to the added functionality.
Sony confirms that users who update to the new Music Unlimited app can download playlists, albums, and individual songs to their iPhone and iPod touch and “enjoy music even when they are not connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network.”
The app remains free of charge and supports all iDevice models that can handle iOS 5.1.
