MAJOR MILESTONE AS DMDS DELIVERS OVER 2000 MUSIC VIDEOS

MAJOR MILESTONE AS DMDS DELIVERS OVER 2000 MUSIC VIDEOS

Industry Culture Change As All Four Major Record Labels Plus Growing
Independent Sector and North American TV Broadcasters Go Digital


TORONTO, July 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - YANGAROO Inc. (TSX-V: YOO, OTCBB: YOOIF), the industry's leading secure digital media
distribution company has reached a major milestone as it has delivered
over 2000 music videos since launching the service a year ago.
YANGAROO'S Digital Media Distribution System (DMDS) is now used by all
four major record label groups as well as the growing independent
community to deliver SD and HD quality music videos digitally to
broadcast destinations such as MTV, VH1, BET, CMT, MuchMusic,
MusiquePlus, MTV Canada, AUX TV, CMT Canada, with more coming, and over
150 additional regional and online destinations.  Before DMDS was
adopted by the major broadcasters as the preferred platform for the
submission of broadcast-ready digital music videos, virtually all music
video submissions were made on costly, time consuming and inefficient
video tapes.

"Hitting the milestone of over 2000 music videos is a significant
achievement for the DMDS technology and sales teams," said Scott
Wambolt, CEO YANGAROO Inc. "It clearly represents a culture change
within the industry and establishes the fact that YANGAROO and our DMDS
service is once again leading the way to a more efficient and effective
digital workflow, and this was clearly reflected in our just released
first quarter financials where our revenues were up 49%. We have the
potential to continue and accelerate this growth rate as more content
owners and broadcasters adopt DMDS and go with a digital workflow."

YANGAROO's technology team worked closely with the TV broadcasters and
the content owners to refine the DMDS process for digitally
distributing SD and HD television broadcast-quality video. DMDS also
transcodes the broadcast file for online availability for streaming and
provision of a frame-accurate preview quality version of the file with
the time-code burned in, which improves reviewing and editing
processes. The television broadcast-quality video file can be easily
integrated into Online Editing Suites, On-Air Playback Servers and
stored in a Digital Archive Server. These files are 50mbit IMX in an
MXF OP1a container that maintain both time-code and closed captioning
for the underlying video.
