GLASTONBURY, CT--(Marketwired - Sep 15, 2014) - CÜR Media (OTCBB: CURM), today announced it has contracted with Zuora, Inc., a leader in subscription billing and mobile commerce, to utilize its Relationship Business Management (RBM) platform to process subscriptions for CÜR Music, CÜR Media's, next generation social music service, which is slated for launch early next year.

Tom Brophy, Founder & CEO of CÜR Media said, "CÜR turned to Zuora for its proven Z-Business solution, which manages the unique business complexities associated with acquiring and growing ongoing customer relationships. Zuora's track record of powering some of the most innovative companies in the world speaks for itself and CÜR is looking to Zuora to support its various subscription offerings with the goal of delivering an excellent consumer experience."

Brian Bell, Chief Marketing Officer of Zuora, said, "It's clear that the music industry is undergoing an evolutionary shift toward streaming music and subscriptions. We're excited to work with CÜR Media as they prepare to launch their second generation music service. We believe our platform, Z-Business, will provide CÜR Media a seamless and customized subscription back end to cultivate long-term customer relationships with their tiered offering."

CÜR Media raised $9.6 million in a private placement offering it conducted in the first quarter of 2014 as part of an alternative public offering.

CÜR Media plans to launch its web and mobile applications in early 2015.

CÜR Media began testing its service in early 2012 as "Raditaz," a DMCA compliant internet radio product developed on iPhone and Android platforms. The company is based in Connecticut, and is led by digital media entrepreneur Tom Brophy and entertainment and music industry veterans John A.
