Do you have more music and movies on your hard drives than you can squeeze onto your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad? I've got good news! ZumoCast has progressed beyond beta and is now available for download on the App Store!
Grab both the ZumoCast server app for your computer and the mobile app for your iOS device, and you're good to go. There's nothing to configure beyond picking which folders you want to make available for streaming -- ZumoCast takes care of the rest automatically. You don't even need to do any fiddling with your router or firewall software. It's probably also worth mentioning that
ZumoCast is totally free.
The app performs quite well over my Wi-Fi connection, but you'll have to tell me about how it handles things on the iPhone -- I'm stuck in an area with only an aging CDMA network to be had. I've never bothered with a streaming app before, but I think I'll be using ZumoCast quite a bit. Hey, if nothing else, I can use it to listen to all the music I don't quite have room for on my iPod.
The ZumoCast server is available for both Windows and Mac, and there are apps for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad. If you've got a ton of media on your computer at home, ZumoCast is an excellent way to enjoy it all, no matter where you are -- and the price tag is unbeatable.
