AT&T Locker cloud storage arrives on Windows Phone 8

AT&T Locker comes to Windows Phone 8

AT&T Locker has been available on Android and iOS for awhile, but those aren't the only platforms the carrier offers -- others need their online storage, too. Accordingly, AT&T has quietly posted a Windows Phone 8 version of Locker. The new app switches to a Microsoft-inspired interface while preserving all of Locker's core features, including an option to automatically upload photos and videos. If you're an AT&T customer and don't mind tying your Windows Phone's cloud storage to your choice of cellular network, you can grab Locker at the link below.

Pipe exits beta, lets Facebook friends share giant files

Pipe lets Facebook users share giant files, whether or not they're online

Cloud storage from the likes of Dropbox and Google is all well and good, but let's face it -- many of our friends won't venture far beyond Facebook. Thankfully, Pipe is about to publicly launch a file transfer service built with them in mind. The company's namesake Facebook tool lets socialites send files without dedicated apps, and automatically picks a method depending on whether or not both contacts are online. If they are, they can send files up to 1GB through a peer-to-peer link; a locker will also hold on to as much as 100MB if the recipient isn't ready and waiting. Pipe doesn't go live until mid-day on June 5th, but those who want to share more on Facebook than their memories can get a heads-up on availability at the source link.

BT offers cloud storage service to broadband customers in the UK

Your BT broadband account now comes with one more perk to justify its existence: a locker service that takes a leaf out of AT&T's book in offering online storage accessible via iOS and Android apps. How much you get depends on the value of your current contract, with an apparent minimum of 2GB and upgrade options extending up to 500GB. If your cloud needs aren't already being catered for, hunt down those BT login details and then use the links below to activate the service and pick up the app. Think of it as a 2GB gift horse.

AT&T Locker opens its cloud to iOS users, offers 5GB of storage free

AT&T's cloud-based Locker is hardly new, having been made available to Android users since this past September. But, as of today, iOS users on the network now have the option to enjoy that freemium service as well, with 5GB offered gratis. Of course, there are subscription tiers for those of you in need of more robust server space: $3.99/mo will net you 30GB, while $9.99/mo delivers a substantial 100GB. Beyond simple remote file storage, however, subs will also have the ability to share multimedia content across email and social networks (i.e. Twitter and Facebook) using a network connection or WiFi. It's live in the App Store now, so if you're keen on what AT&T's peddling, check out the source below.

UltraViolet movie format to use Dolby Digital Plus encoding, keep sound thumping across platforms

UltraViolet movie format to use Dolby Digital Plus encoding, keep sound thumping across platformsMovies encoded in UltraViolet's Common File Format represent just one of multiple takes on paid internet video -- what's to make them stand out? The answer might just be Dolby Digital Plus audio encoding, which should be a staple feature of CFF from now on. A newly ready development kit lets producers feed the multichannel sound to hardware and apps that can recognize it, including web-based avenues like Apple's HTTP Live Streaming, Microsoft's Smooth Streaming and MPEG's DASH. Just in case a few devices fall through the cracks, Dolby is talking directly with digital production firms like castLabs, Digital Rapids and Elemental Technologies to make sure the audio codec's implementation truly spans platforms. We don't know how soon movies will take advantage of the upgrade, but the Dolby addition lends weight to a fledgling format that might have as fierce a battle in home theaters as it does on PCs and tablets.

PSA: If you purchased extra Gmail storage, your Google Drive just got bigger

google drive extra storage

5GB, huh? Not quite enough for you? If you were wise enough to up the capacity of your Gmail inbox + Picasa allotment before today, your Google Drive experience just got a lot more awesome. A trio of editors here at Engadget HQ managed to upgrade their Gmail boxes a couple of years ago, and at the time (read: it's no longer an available option), Google was offering an extra 20GB for use across its properties for a mere $5 per year. Upon loading Google Drive today, we each found a healthy 25GB waiting to be filled, with no expectation of additional payments to Google. Be sure to let us know if you're seeing a similar boost in capaciousness down in comments below, particularly for those who splurged on one of the more current Gmail add-on plans.
