Don't stop the music

Karen Kessler

Karaoke is darn popular on the Internet. Go figure.

After a month of streaming over 500,000 songs to Dave Matthews wannabes, eatsleepmusic.com needs some help. Akamai is lending a hand in helping eastsleepmusic.com deliver high-quality, interactive music to consumers. eatsleepmusic.com turns a PC into a Karaoke center and recording studio. Akamai's FreeFlow streaming services will increase the speed, performance and reliability of the eatsleepmusic.com website and the delivery of rich content and streaming media to its Florence Nightingales.

Akamai is also making a name for itself in Hollywood. In addition to being the streamer of choice for MTV.com, Akamai partnered with ABC.com to stream video of this year's Emmy awards. Akamai's technology provided red-carpet coverage of starlets arriving as well as post-awards backstage interviews.
