Android Music App PowerAMP Releases New Feature-Rich Version 1.1


Los Angeles, CA, February 05, 2011 -- It’s not often that a newcomer keeps Google on their toes, but the Droid community has spoken: PowerAMP is king of the music apps. PowerAMP is enjoying an enviable position--this week they will surpass two million Android trial version installs, and since December, they have been the number one multimedia app, while maintaining a respectable top three spot in all non-game apps. While Android/Google has announced an improved music player for their 3.0 version of the OS, rumors indicate that with the exception of music download capabilities, PowerAMP will remain the more feature-rich of the two apps.

PowerAMP’s developers are confident that today’s release of the feature-rich PowerAMP Version 1.1 ($4.99, http://powerampapp.com/) will ensure their five-out-of-five rating for the previous versions remains untarnished. PowerAMP’s powerful but easy-to-navigate interface (see screenshots here: http://tinyurl.com/poweramp-screenshots) and built-in dynamic equalizers cater to sound quality fanatics.
