| Louisville,
CO June 13, 2000 - UltraCo Incorporated, makers of the popular and powerful
UltraPlayer audio software, Spacial Audio Solutions, developers of the revolutionary
Streaming Audio Manager (SAM) webcasting technology and Net Radio Promotions announced
today a strategic relationship to integrate key components of their respective products
and services into a comprehensive webcaster to end-user system. Spacial
Audio Solutions will license UltraCos Neutrino MPEG audio decoder to enhance
the SAM webcasting technology as a stand-alone, turnkey streaming tool. We evaluated
all the decoders available to us and found that UltraPlayers Neutrino engine had the
best combination of CPU efficiency and audio quality. Were excited to give everyone,
from fully professional commercial operations to weekend hobbyists, a flexible and
automated way to legally, easily and economically set up, manage and effectively maintain
an Internet radio station said Bryan Payne, President of Spacial Audio Solutions. UltraPlayer
will become the preferred media player solution for stations using SAM technology. Were
proud that the quality of UltraPlayer and our Neutrino decoder caught the attention of the
team at Spacial Audio. Radio stations migrating from the airwaves to the Internet will
definitely relate to this new technology when they discover the SAM-UltraPlayer
solution. We look forward to further integration of SAM and UltraPlayer in ways that
will reward our users with interactive listening, said UltraCo President, Andy
Fanton. Net
Radio Promotions will manage music content for the entire Audiorealm network of stations. Our partnership with Spacial Audio
will enable independent and major record labels and artists to make their music instantly
available to all Audiorealm stations for broadcast and promotion over the Internet. We are
especially excited about the ability to track music and gain invaluable information such
as spins, audience numbers and listener demographics said Trevor Lane, Director of
Net Radio Promotions. SAM
(Streaming Audio Manager) is currently the only multi-format streaming solution with RIAA
licensing, seamless advertising, syndicated news and music content integration, automated
playlist management and unique statistical tracking and reporting. SAM reporting is done
in real-time to the Audiorealm Broadcast Networks server database. Webcasters can download
the free SAM software and plugins at www.spacialaudio.com.
Internet radio stations using the SAM technology are listed at www.audiorealm.com. UltraPlayer
1.0 plays MP3, WAV, WMA, CD Audio, and Internet radio streams featuring a dual-mode,
intuitive interface with animated UltraSkins, audio plugins, and 3D visualization modules.
The feature-packed application allows users to play and search for music, build and manage
playlists, tune to and record Internet radio streams, edit ID3 tags, adjust sound levels
with a Graphic-EQ, rip CD tracks to MP3s (with the addition of the EasyMP3 module),
