Universal expands digital music & video distributionby Andrew Redfern @ 6th June 2008 5:31 pm
Universal Music Group (UMG), the world’s leading music company, and Destiny Media Technologies (OTC Bulletin Board: DSNY) announced today that they have expanded their digital media distribution services agreement to include UMG’s affiliates in Canada and Mexico. Under this multi-year agreement, Destiny Media remains the primary, and only company-wide platform, for the global distribution of UMG’s pre-release digital media in North America. “This agreement further expands UMG’s ability to utilize Play MPE’s(R) digital distribution platform which replaces the costly traditional system of delivering promotional CDs using couriers and express mail,” stated Vincent Freda, UMG’s Executive Vice President, Digital Logistics and Business Services. “Beyond its significant cost benefits, this system enhances our control over unauthorized copying, shortens distribution lead times, and provides superior data tracking.” “We are pleased that Universal Music Group has chosen to expand its relationship with us. We’ve been working with their staff since our first pilot in 2004 and we look forward to continuing to grow their usage both in and outside of the United States,” added Steve Vestergaard, CEO of Destiny. Universal Music Group is the world’s leading music company with wholly owned record operations or licensees in 77 countries. Its businesses also include Universal Music Publishing Group, the industry’s leading global music publishing operation. Universal Music Group’s record labels include Decca, Deutsche Grammophon, Disa, Emarcy, Fonovisa, Interscope Geffen A&M Records, Island Def Jam Music Group, Lost Highway Records, Machete Music, MCA Nashville, Mercury Nashville, Mercury Records, Philips, Polydor Records, Universal Motown Records Group, Universal Music Latino, Universal Records South, and Verve Music Group as well as a multitude of record labels owned or distributed by its record company subsidiaries around the world. The Universal Music Group owns the most extensive catalog of music in the industry, which includes the last 100 years of the world’s most popular artists and their recordings. UMG’s catalog is marketed through two distinct divisions, Universal Music Enterprises (in the U.S.) and Universal Strategic Marketing (outside the U.S.). Universal Music Group also includes eLabs, its new media and technologies division; Bravado, its merchandising company; Twenty-First Artists, its full service management division; and Helter Skelter, its live music agency.
