VANCOUVER,
British Columbia/EWORLDWIRE/ April 1, 2003 --- Destiny Media
Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: DSNY; Berlin: DME 935 410) is pleased
to announce that Canada Promedia, a reseller to China, has
licensed Clipstream to Shanghai Information Industry
Co., Broadband Information Center and Shanghai Yashi Advertising
Company for unlimited use of Clipstream banner advertising
on the site http://online2.sh.cn.
The
Shanghai Information Industry Co., a wholly owned subsidiary
of China Telecom, supplies broadband connectivity to end users
and local businesses including ADSL and T1 connections in
and around Shanghai. It currently has a monthly end user growth
rate of approximately 25%. The Online2 website is one of the
premier portals and broadband content channels supplying multimedia
content in the form of news, video, audio and services to
these end users. The Online2 website currently logs more then
4 million visitors to its portal daily, not including Shanghai
Information Industry Co. broadband customers.
The
agreement is for one year and has terms for optional upgrades
to other Clipstream products. Currently Shanghai Information
Industry Co. and China Telecom are already consulting with
Destiny and Canada Promedia Inc. to integrate similar content
delivery systems into its nation wide broadband network.
Weishen
Xu, President of Canada Promedia Inc. commented: This
is a very important deal for both companies as it provides
a strong foothold and exposure for Clipstream in China.
Shahin
Al Rashid, Canada Promedias Technical Director commented:
This deal was two years in the making. We could not
have done this without Destinys support, help and patience.
With this deal, we are now getting a lot of requests for Clipstream.
Steve
McKay, Destiny Business Development addressed the value of
the relationship with Canada Promedia by saying, Relationships
with strong resellers helps us quickly bring global exposure
to the value Clipstream brings to a portal owner. Because
Clipstream creates much higher click through rates and
brand exposure than a static advertisement and reduces backend
infrastructure and maintenance costs, it creates a clear return
on investment for site owners who can increase their advertising
sales.
