Quotes:
Elaine Olshantesky, director of marketing for Memocast:
"iPod and cell phone integration caters to our 'how I want it, when I want it' generation. Technology enables us to obliterate global barriers that hindered connectivity before. We want Anastasia to be able to watch her favorite Russian movie with her American husband Bill who doesn't speak a word of Russian."
Michael Arrington, editor for TechCrunch:
"With all the buzz surrounding sites catering to Hollywood, it's easy to miss a company like Memocast, but if it raises the money to rapidly grow the business, this is a company and a space that bears watching over the coming months."
