Airborne Entertainment

Airborne Entertainment was a Montreal, Quebec mobile entertainment company founded in 2000 that published and distributed premium mobile content and applications for carrier decks and early smartphones, including games, ringtones, ring-back tones, images, video and informational content, often under licensed consumer brands. The company raised a $22M round in July 2004 with participation from Insight Partners and Verizon, sold a majority stake to Japan's CYBIRD Co., Ltd. in 2005, was taken back by management in a 2008 buy-out, operated afterwards as Airborne Mobile, and was acquired by Bandsintown in October 2010. It no longer operates as an independent company: both airborneentertainment.com and airbornemobile.com are parked domain-sale listings, and the company never published a public developer portal, API, or SDK surface. This profile is retained as an API Evangelist network history record.

Airborne Entertainment is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Mobile, Entertainment, Mobile Content, and Gaming.

  note: Company is defunct (acquired by Bandsintown 2010). Primary domains airborneentertainment.com and airbornemobile.com
    both resolve to HugeDomains parking pages (HTTP 200, redirect to hugedomains.com). No API, developer portal, docs, SDK,
    or event surface exists to search, probe, or derive from, so no artifacts were written.
