CloudBerryLab gave us 5 full licenses to give away to Miracle Tutorials readers, so this is your chance to win the most versatile S3 Amazon explorer on Windows today!
I wrote already quite a few articles on S3 Amazon testing out a couple of applications and CloudBerry S3 Explorer came out on top with respect to file management. My interest in this application is biased towards video and audio because that is what this site is about mainly. So, I’m quite excited to be able to make five readers happy with the Pro version. Read on:
CloudBerry S3 Explorer Features
CloudBerry S3 Explorer can do a lot more then handling rich media. You can do backups with it, work with several accounts, create expiring URLs, … It is actually too much to cover on this page, so here is a pdf from CloudBerry Lab: http://cloudberrylab.com/download%5CCloudBerry_S3_Explorer_Brochure01.pdf with all the features. You may also read the related articles at the bottom of the page, if you haven’t already done so.
And if you want to know what the difference is between the Freeware- and Pro version, in other words, what you would miss if you do not WIN a Pro License, look here:

And now, the little contest!
How can you win such a license? It is very easy:
Follow @cloudberrylab and @miracletutorial and just tweet us the following message:
“WIN a Pro license of CloudBerry S3 Explorer! on Miracle Tutorials: http://tinyurl.com/ykud6sl @miracletutorial”
AND
Leave a comment on THIS page, telling us what you will be doing with CloudBerry S3 Explorer Pro. To give you some inspiration, I’ll tell you what I use it for:
What do I use CloudBerry Explorer for combined with S3 Amazon/CloudFront?
I use it to manage demo videos on www.joomla21century.com and a couple of others sites as well. I’m also using it to upload graphical work(often lots of Mbs) and then create an expiring link to them to send to clients. In the past, I placed files like that on my own server, sent the link and removed the files after inquiring if they were downloaded. I don’t have to do that anymore, the link expires, the files are secure, so I just remove those old files whenever I have the time. In the beginning, I was quite careful not to put too much stuff on S3 amazon, but the pricing is so low that I really do not worry about that anymore.
That doesn’t mean I should not clean up the mess regularly, otherwise I end up with so many redundant files that it isn’t funny anymore.
We will select 5 winners on April the 21th. Don’t wait too long, do it NOW!
Oh, and if you don’t win this time, you still will be in the running for our next contest, when we gave away 5 licenses of S3Media Pro, the advanced Joomla extension to play video & audio from S3 Amazon, YouTube, etc…
For this second contest, you need to be a follower of @miracletutorial or a member of Miracle Tutorials.

I have followed both & RT[at]ashgripe
I appreciate your review. I’m not a very technically inclined person. Thanks for highlighting the features and benefits of CloudBerry S3 Explorer. I did my own research into it and what i like best is the easy to use Cloudberry Online Backup options. I would be happy to win one of the free licenses that you are giving away. I will use it mainly for backing up my personal and work related data such as documents, images, video and audio files which i share frequently. This is a great concept which is fast catching on and a viable online backup solution.
Thanks again for the opportunity.

We interview many mma fighters for our website. We upload the video files and stream the file using amazon s3 rtmp feature. Currently I am using s3 firefox. Cloudberry explorer is seems to be the best solution for managing files on the S3 cloud.
