MUSICBLITZ Corporate Fact Sheet

Mission: 

MUSICBLITZ is a consumer-oriented music company that is redefining the relationships between consumers, artists and record labels. The company combines traditional record and artist development and off-line marketing practices with technology-enabled distribution.

MUSICBLITZ funds established artists to record new singles and then features this exclusive music in the form of free downloads on its site, www.musicblitz.com, and in its genre-specific Web communities. MUSICBLITZ generates revenues by licensing the most popular singles - as determined by the number of downloads - to TV and film studios for use in "offline" movies, TV shows and other media.

In keeping with the company's consumer orientation, MUSICBLITZ offers music fans the only critical guide to free and legal downloads. Professional freelancers provide an objective editorial perspective to help consumers find the music they might most enjoy. It's also the only site on the Internet that gives consumers the option to search for music based on file type, in addition to the artist and genre categories. Additionally, MUSICBLITZ provides consumers with a personalized email service that lets them know when new material becomes available for download.
