LAS VEGAS, Nov. 11, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Players Network (OTCBB:PNTV), the leading Digital Television and Internet Media Network dedicated to Las Vegas Entertainment and the Gaming Lifestyle, announced today a distribution deal with Amazon to sell gaming DVDs to Amazon's 50 million plus unique user customer base.
The distribution deal with Amazon is part of Players Network's 2010 strategy to expand their audience base with increased brand awareness. By tapping into the direct-to-DVD market, Players Network hopes to reach consumers not yet in the new media space, and create a brand loyalty that can cross over into television and web through promotional efforts to be revealed in the first quarter of 2010.
As Amazon's sales are verifiable, Players Network sees Amazon's reporting as another tool for measurability of audience preferences. Other Players Network genres, such as Las Vegas shows and attractions, are expected to be marketed through Amazon in early 2010.
