Destiny Media Technologies Reports Record Revenues for Q1 2008

Access Fees Grow for 9th Consecutive Quarter and 250% over Prior Year; Second Major Record Label Signs With Destiny

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Destiny Media (BULLETIN BOARD: DSNY) , the global leader in the secure distribution of pre-release music to radio, is pleased to report record revenues for Q1 (2008) which covers the period September - November 2007.

"Revenue exceeded management's projections again on the strength of new contracts and increased usage by existing customers," said Fred Vandenberg Chief Financial Officer. "Play MPE(R) revenues grew by more than 30% from the prior quarter, while Clipstream(R) revenues grew by more than 22%. The loss from operations increased to $.02 per share, reflecting increases in expenses for staffing, advertising and European and Asian IP protection in preparation of anticipated growth."

Management expects revenue growth to continue to accelerate as free trial usage of the Play MPE(R) system comes to an end and as more focus is put on Clipstream(R) sales and marketing efforts.

On December 18, 2007, the company signed a company wide agreement with a second major North American record label. Details on this agreement are expected to be released within a week. The company has entered into paid agreements for Play MPE(R) usage directly with some sub labels at two majors and company wide agreements with the other two. The company expects to completely phase out trial usage in the current quarter.
