OraStream feels the music in Neil Young's new book

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 10 -- OraStream Private Limited has announced its adaptive streaming technology has been featured in Neil Young’s new book, ‘To Feel the Music: A Songwriter’s Mission to Save High-Quality-Audio’.

Co-written with Phil Baker, the book tells the story of Neil Young’s efforts to improve the quality of audio that consumers hear.

The book describes the business and development story behind Pono and relates how Neil Young’s massive online archives, which the Guardian (UK) described as ‘a revolution in fandom’, came about. Young reveals how a unique adaptive streaming technology developed in Singapore made it possible to provide all of his music streaming in high resolution with the Neil Young Archives (www.neilyoungarchives.com).

OraStream’s technology has enabled all of the music on the Neil Young Archives to be enjoyed in high resolution audio quality on any personal computer and smartphone.

Celebrated singer-songwriter Neil Young, who has put his name and reputation on the quest for better audio over many years, says in the book: “There’s no longer any need to compromise audio quality as OraStream’s adaptive bitrate streaming marries the convenience of streaming with the best quality that users’ devices can handle. The technology is obviously superior to anything else.”

According to technology writer and co-author, Phil Baker, adaptive bitrate streaming is one of the key features that has made the Neil Young Archives possible. “There’s no higher streaming quality in the world than this. Neil and I believe this is the future of audio streaming.”

OraStream Chief Executive Officer, Frankie Tan says: "Neil Young’s mission to restore audio quality to what it once was, is the most important professional undertaking of his entire career.”
