XONA Media introduces DVD+Digital movie kiosks now capable of delivering up to 15,000 titles on demand.

XONA Media, developer of the world’s only movie kiosk capable of both traditional disc retail as well as digital media downloads, announced today a breakthrough in the storage capacity of its Digital Vault for media kiosks – now with the capacity to securely store up to 15,000 full length movies and TV programs. This expanded capacity enables digital retailers to offer in-store libraries larger than the premium online streaming movie selection from Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu. And with the XONA Instant Movie Download (XIMD) technology, every title is available for download in as little as 10 seconds.

Autodesk, Inc., announced Autodesk 123D software — a free* Windows-based 3D modeling application for makers combined with content and services — is now available in a public beta release for download by makers.

“The reality is most people don’t know how to design in 3D, nor do they know how to get their designs made”

With Autodesk 123D, anyone can explore, learn and create highly precise 3D models. Makers can bring ideas to reality by combining powerful digital design with services for creating physical objects. From both within the application and through the 123D website, individuals can discover and download content to start, complete or visualize a project, and then access for-purchase personal fabrication services through Autodesk 123D partners. Makers can also purchase pre-fabricated products to explore 3D printing or assemble models from 2D laser cut materials like cardboard—the first of a variety of custom fabrication options coming soon to Autodesk123D.
