DLA ADDS MOMEDIA CONCERTS TO ITS MUSIC CATALOG

Miami, September 21, 2009 – DLA, the leading provider of PPV and VOD services in Latin America, has inked a major music distribution deal with MoMedia, a leading digital distributor and manager of Video on Demand services backed by Endemol. With this agreement, DLA will have access to a large portfolio of music concerts and shows for the Concert Channel that will be available on the linear channel, VOD service, and broadband.

“Adding MoMedia’s content to our music portfolio will allow our affiliates and their subscribers to experience – for the first time in Latin America – the best music with the broadest distribution - on TV, broadband and VOD, by accessing one single destination: Concert Channel! We’re very pleased with this deal that supports our commitment to continuously bring new content propositions to our markets,” said Antonio Barreto, DLA’s CEO.

The new music content from MoMedia (32 titles in total) includes concerts with artists Air Supply, Blonde Redhead, Chic, Iggy and The Stooges, Zucchero, and Placido Domingo, and performances and interviews from music TV show Later with Jools Holland, including Coldplay, Radiohead, Robbie Williams, and Travis among others.

Commenting on the deal, Mark Benmore, COO & Co-Founder at MoMedia International, said: “DLA was looking for a digital distributor who could supply a large volume of quality music content efficiently and cost effectively for their IPTV, broadband services and now Video On Demand. We represent a large portfolio of music content from a wide range of producers and distributors and we were able to offer them a one-stop-shop solution. It also means we can maximize the monetary potential for the content owners we represent, which in this current economic climate is vital.”

DLA will bring the new music content to more than 2 million Concert Channel viewers and 1.4 VOD subscribers in Latin America, including Brazil and the Caribbean.
