QTRAX Launches in Canada: Free Legal Music Downloads Now Available to Music Fans

Shamin Abas, EVP of Communications, commented: "I've worked alongside the Principals for several years now. Theirs is quite a story. They have passionately pursued QTRAX both as the ultimate consumer proposition and a very compelling business model".

"The difficulties of licensing and funding have ended so many digital music initiatives. But Allan and Lance were not going to be deterred. Their unshakeable belief sustained them throughout. A conviction that it was possible to lucratively monetize free and legal music and simultaneously provide consumers with precisely what they were not only demanding but taking- free downloadable songs- up until now without proper compensation to artists and rights holders."

Lance Ford, President & CMO observed: " Creating a digital music service is not for the faint of heart. But Allan & I have always been in heated agreement as to the ultimate consumer proposition and the most robust business model. Recent improvements in technology have made it possible for us to deliver the product that satisfies both our consumer and commercial goals. As prominent illegal sites have recently been shuttered, there are tens of millions of former users looking for a home. We want to be the ultimate destination for music fans"

Allan Klepfisz, President & CEO commented: " I am truly humbled by the size of the opportunity. We will continue to be single-minded in our focus to build the best global music service. We will incessantly improve our product, constantly add more global and local music and relentlessly pursue partnerships that enhance the consumer experience and create meaningful revenues. Notwithstanding the many years invested to date, our work has really just begun. But we are thrilled to have the opportunity to build the business."
