Marketwired
i-Mobilize, providers of multi-platform digital content
distribution and a division of Metatron, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: MRNJ),
set a record over the weekend for the highest-ever app sales in the
company's history. i-Mobilize doubled its average daily app sales
revenues over the two-day period (Sat. - Sun., April 3-4),
generating a 30% increase in app downloads compared to the
company's previous record.
Over the weekend i-Mobilize released four digital entertainment
apps for users of the new iPad devices. Those apps, including the
Bob Marley Spiritual Journey HD documentary; Complete Relaxation
and Lose Weight Now hypnosis video apps by UK's top selling
self-help author Glenn Harrold; and Electric Sheep Trance Art, were
among the titles driving i-Mobilize's record-setting weekend sales.
i-Mobilize has an additional 20 entertainment app titles for the
iPad currently in pre-launch store review, as well as more than 100
iPad apps currently in development and scheduled for distribution
to consumers throughout the next six months. The company's Bob
Marley Spiritual Journey app is scheduled for release to users of
Android devices later this week.
"We launched four apps for the new iPad device on Saturday and
that certainly had a positive impact on our weekend sales," said
Joe Riehl, CEO of i-Mobilize. "However, significant increases were
also realized across every content category in the i-Mobilize
library through all mobile devices and platforms. As we continue to
release new app titles, and as we roll out our new universal
functionality that enables consumers to download and play on their
multiple mobile devices, we expect to continue exceeding previous
sales records."
i-Mobilize also expects its increases to continue amid reports
published today and over the weekend that only 300,000 iPad units
were available in the marketplace at launch, with the majority of
shipments scheduled to arrive to consumers later in the month.
