PHOENIX, Aug. 5, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- MediaMax Technology Corporation (OTCBB:MMXT) proudly announces that its copy protection and enhancement technology called MediaMax(tm) has been included on many of the world's best-selling commercial CDs. Just this week, the Company has added Babyface's latest release "Grown & Sexy" to its constantly growing list of smash-hit album releases that utilize MediaMax to reduce unauthorized copying of an artist's music. MediaMax Technology Corp. earns royalties for every disc manufactured that includes its proprietary copy management and enhancement software.
Debuting this week in the Top-Ten, Babyface joins six other Platinum and soon-to-be Platinum-selling CDs that are all currently on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart! The other top selling albums, all containing MediaMax, include "In Your Honor" from The Foo Fighters and " Never Gone" from The Backstreet Boys, which debuted at #2 and #3 on the charts, respectively. Both releases have already become Platinum-selling CDs. The fourth top album with MediaMax is the Dave Matthews Band release, "Stand Up" which debuted in the #1 spot and is fast approaching Double-Platinum status. The seven top MediaMax'd albums are rounded out with Keith Anderson's "Three Chord Country And American Rock & Roll" and Raheem DeVaughn's debut album, "The Love Experience."
"Every week more and more of these music CDs are shipping with SunnComm's newest features including On-the-Fly Technology(tm) and Secure Burn(tm)," points out Bill Whitmore, MediaMax's president. "As the dominating CD copy protection and enhancement technology used in the United States, we intend to maintain that lead over our competitors by continuing to provide consumers with an ever-improving mechanism to play, move and share their music in a way that is more responsible -- no matter whether that music is found on CD, an Internet music site or vended through a kiosk. Our continual focus on technology enhancement is designed to create a kinder and gentler way for record labels, publishers, artists and composers to protect their copyrights while delivering an unparalleled user experience respectful of the CD buyers' rights. By including more and more valuable features on our enhanced audio CDs, it is only a matter of time before a typical CD buyer will be searching out the MediaMax name or service mark on CDs they consider purchasing."
Most recently, MediaMax was featured nationally on The Howard Stern radio show, where Howard described to his coast-to-coast audience some of the great features found on the newest version of MediaMax. The Howard Stern show is listened to by more people than any other radio show in the US. Howard talked about America's most accepted copy management and enhancement technology and reflected that " someday all audio CDs will include MediaMax."
