The initial 24 month term includes a guaranteed minimum monthly required usage, and covers transmission of music and music videos by UMG labels, Universal affiliates and Universal licensees. The distribution will be handled by Destiny’s Play MPE® system, an automated service containing patented locking and watermarking technologies, providing secure distribution and marketing of pre-release music and videos to radio and other trusted users.

"It was important for us to standardize on a single agreement with Destiny across all of our territories", says Mark Moroney, VP Production Universal Music Group International. "This new deal provides consistent pricing and terms worldwide, allowing expansion to new countries and recipient types without the need for further negotiation."

Steve Vestergaard, Destiny CEO, says that with the acquisition of EMI, Universal Music Group is expected to represent over 40% of major label transaction volume. "We've been working on building our system for several years, with the goal of increased usage when the new software rolled out. This new agreement clears the way for us to work with the staff at the parent to market to their own regional staff to expand to new territories and recipient types."

Destiny is also launching a new cross platform playerless streaming video format that doesn't require streaming servers. The new format, utilizing the same bandwidth and infrastructure, is designed to reach up to one hundred times as many viewers as other solutions, allowing publishers to deliver video content to internet TV's, smart phones, tablets, e-book readers and computers from a standard web server, without the cost of transcoding.

The shares are trading at $0.80, and with 51.2 million shares outstanding, the company is capitalized at $41 million.
