What is a SmartDownload?

Broderbund has adopted SmartDownload, a revolutionary new streaming technology that enables us to provide you with a larger selection of downloadable products and to deliver these products to your desktop more quickly than ever before. Many of our products were previously too large to be delivered via download, but with our SmartDownload technology, they now download quickly and easily.

Through a simple, one-time installation of a small, safe and secure SmartDownload client, you will be able to download and use your applications in a matter of minutes. Unlike traditional downloads, you can start using your application while it is downloading to your computer! No more waiting for the download to finish and installing the program. It's right there for you to use.

This powerful technology will save you time, eliminate the wait for your software product and maximize bandwidth. The Broderbund applications you access through our SmartDownload technology will look and behave exactly like traditional software applications; they'll just be available to you for use that much sooner.

SmartDownloads, Powered by AppStream
To bring you this revolutionary solution, we have partnered with AppStream, a leading provider of technology for on-demand software. The patented AppStream platform provides the technology backbone for SmartDownloads.
