Zipidee.com – The Digital Marketplace

Zipidee.comYou’ve got eBay et. al for the selling and buying of boats, shoes, cocktail dresses, old hardware parts, anything really that you can get your hands on.

Zipidee wants to be the eBay of digital goods. These are intangible bits, for the most part, that reside in the circuitry of your gadgets—things like mp3’s, e-books, wallpapers, ringtones and audio guides. With Zipidee merchants can create their own virtual stores to sell and list their wares for sale on Zipidee itself or through its widgets. Merch can be rented and sold via downloads or even streams. Prices are set by the seller and sales can be tracked with the analytics dashboard. Zipidee also offers its own DRM which sellers can use to protect their products. For their services, Zipidee will apply a dollar listing fee and they’ll take a small cut of the profits.
