SEATTLE, Jan. 12, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- NetMusic Entertainment (Pink Sheets:NTMT) announced today that it is donating 10% of all sales for the month of January to the Red Cross Tsunami Relief Plan (http://redcross.org/article/0,1072,0_312_3927,00.html). All sales on the company's NetMusic (http://www.netmusic.com) and Audio Lunchbox (http://www.audiolunchbox.com) websites are eligible.
"The tsunami has had a profound effect on all of us at NetMusic Entertainment," says Glen Starchman, CEO. "Having traveled extensively throughout Asia and being in the midst of launching digital music services throughout the region made the images on the news hit very close to home. We explored several options for how we could contribute to the cause and the Red Cross initiatives offered the best hope for our donations to make a significant difference. We encourage other businesses, especially in the digital media space, to donate in kind. It is one thing to link to the Red Cross on a website, but an entirely different thing to donate a portion of revenues. NetMusic Entertainment is firmly committed to being a socially responsible organization and a good corporate neighbor."
NetMusic Entertainment would like to thank all of those who have made purchases on Audio Lunchbox (http://www.audiolunchbox.com) and NetMusic.com (http://www.netmusic.com) and encourages all consumers to contribute to the Red Cross Tsunami Relief Plan by purchasing and enjoying digital music and CDs from NetMusic in the month of January.
