MediaNet, the industry leading business-to-business provider of
premium music and media delivery to customers of all sizes, announced
today two new products, easy to install Web Components and an API
through the Company's advanced enterprise technology platform, MN
Open.
Alan McGlade, CEO of MediaNet, stated: "MediaNet is delivering the
next generation of music services. We are changing the paradigm by
bringing music to the user rather than forcing them to go to a handful
of centralized online destinations to acquire downloads. The MN Open
Web Components and API offer for the first time, the ability to engage
users in the moment to discover and purchase music, while our
customers can keep them on their site longer and maximize revenue."
Customers can now sign up for the MN Open Web Components and API for
free at http://www.mndigital.com and have a digital music offering up
and running on their website or application quickly.
MediaNet's suite of Web Components is easy to install and incorporate
into a website with no coding required. Customers copy and paste the
code snippets anywhere on their page with their branding front and
center. Available in three main categories: contextual matching;
commerce and discovery, Web Components features include:
* Media Matcher: Automatically matches MediaNet's catalog against
existing web content
* Media Links: Hyperlinks references to artists, albums and songs
within existing content on page
* Relevant Media Search: Integrates into site's existing search and
returns media results alongside regular search results
* Media Explorer: Dynamically displays music-related information with
purchasable media
* Media Charts: Charts top selling content to entice music discovery,
sampling and purchases
* Media Purchase: Fulfills purchases through an automatically
configured and setup component which appears in its dedicated, secure
window
With the MN Open API, customers have complete control over the user
experience, functionality, e-commerce and a 7 million song catalog
with all services delivered under their brand. The API features
include:
* Integration into any website or application
* Advanced catalog search capabilities with fuzzy matching
* Access to a portion of or the entire catalog and customize pricing
* Rich metadata for every song, album, and artist
* Use of MediaNet's e-commerce engine or integration with the
customer's existing e-commerce

for a customer's end users and business model

Hadi Partovi, President, iLike, commented: "MediaNet's technology made
it easy for iLike to roll out an MP3 store in record time. iLike's in-
page MP3 purchase functionality helps keep iLike's user base on the
site, engaged in the discovery and sampling of music, while making the
purchasing process easy."
David Hyman, founder and CEO, MOG, added: "MediaNet has all of the
right components we need to launch a streaming music service. A
comprehensive catalog, superior back-end technology and the right
pricing made it easy for MOG to select MediaNet as our music service
provider. The integration process has been excellent and we are very
excited about delivering new features for music lovers to interact and
engage with MOG."
Frank Murray, President of Intertech Media remarked: "With more than
1,000 radio station websites under management, Intertech Media is
constantly looking for new ways to add value and revenue for our
clients. MediaNet's API and Web Components allow us to advance our
mission of providing tools to keep listeners engaged online for longer
periods of time with music content that is exciting and relevant. With
MediaNet's advanced platform, we have solved the problem for our
clients to stop sending their users outbound to third party sites for
music purchasing while creating a more seamless and integrated
listening environment."
