Local Technology Company Strikes Gold with America’s Best Selling Music CDs!
Gold, Platinum, or Double-Platinum selling CDs from Dave Matthews, Foo Fighters, The Backstreet Boys and Velvet Revolver all include content protection and enhancement technology called MediaMax™
For Local Release
Phoenix, AZ July 1, 2005 – Technology developed by a small Phoenix-based technology company has been discovered by some of the world’s biggest selling musical artists.
The company, SunnComm International (OTC: SCMI), took on the challenge to develop technology that, once placed on an audio CD, would limit the number of CD copies the consumer could make. Quietly at work in offices located at the Chinese Cultural Center in Phoenix, the reception to its technology by artists and record companies has been anything but quiet. Today, MediaMax can be found on some of the top current Billboard hit releases including “Never Gone” from The Backstreet Boys and “In Your Honor” from Foo Fighters, which just last week, debuted at #2 and #3 on the charts, respectively. Both releases are already well on their way to becoming Gold-selling CDs!
“MediaMax’d” Dave Matthews Band release “Stand Up” has hit Gold and is on its way to becoming a Platinum-selling album as well. Velvet Revolver’s “Contraband” reached the #1 spot on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart and has achieved Double-Platinum status by selling more than 2 million units. Other Gold, Platinum and Double-Platinum selling albums include Anthony Hamilton’s Platinum CD, “Comin’ From Where I’m From” and J-Kwon’s Gold Album “Hood Hop.”
SunnComm, along with its marketing arm, MediaMax Technology (OTCBB:MMXT), have worked to include its technology on over 100 commercially released CD titles across more than 30 record labels. “Our technology is successful because our small company is primarily composed of people who love music,” says Peter Jacobs, SunnComm’s prez. “MediaMax adds some incredible features to a standard CD while it guides people into becoming more responsible when it comes to the number of additional copies of the CD they can make. Our ultimate goal is to have people looking for the MediaMax name or service mark on CDs they consider purchasing.”
Both SunnComm International and MediaMax Corp. earn royalties for every disc manufactured containing its proprietary copy management and enhancement software. In just five years, SunnComm International Inc. (OTC:SCMI) has become the leader in digital content enhancement and security technology for audio compact disc media. MediaMax was recently featured nationally on The Howard Stern radio show.
