Amazon Intros Cloud Drive App for the Mac

The Cloud Drive service include 5GB of storage for free, music backup support for Amazon MP3 purchases, and offers paid upgrades for additional storage.

Mac and Windows users have been limited, until now, to accessing their Cloud Drive content through a Web browser. With today’s app release, however, Mac users can upload files to their Cloud Drive account by dragging content onto a menu bar icon.

According to Amazon, the Cloud Drive app lets users upload files via drag-and-drop or via a contextual menu, download files, pause and resume uploads, and check to see how much online storage space is still available. That description, however, is a little misleading because the app includes a link to the Cloud Drive website where you can view and download files instead of directly supporting downloads in-app.

Cloud Drive is a free service, as are the Mac and Windows apps. The Cloud Drive app is available for download at the Amazon website.
