Notes to Editors:
One Media operates a model of content acquisition, representation and digital
exploitation, which is successful and profitable. The Company's small team of
Creative Technicians ingests, re-compiles and prepares digital music releases
utilising the bespoke `in-house' developed software. The newly compiled
digital-only albums are then distributed across over 300 digital retail stores
worldwide. One Media now has thousands of albums listed across all the key
digital stores such as iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, eMusic and streaming
channels on YouTube to name but a few. One Media is a B2B content supplier to
all digital stores and does not operate its own consumer site. Its music
catalogue is also available for synchronisation use in films, advertisements,
TV programs and games. One Media operates an online sync database system that
enables music supervisors to explore the vast library and select tracks for
music briefs. With over 70 catalogue acquisitions to date, the catalogue
contains circa 170,000 music tracks and over 4000 hours of video content, from
artists spanning 7 decades from the `forties' to the `noughties'. One Media
focuses on `middle of the road', nostalgic music by well known artists from
every genre, including; Pop, Rock, Reggae, R&B, Children's music, Karaoke,
Easy-Listening, Jazz, Soul, Blues, Rap, Hip-Hop, Gospel, World-Music, plus
Stand-Up Comedy, Spoken-Word and over 1000 hours of Classical Music. One Media
is now an eligible company for the Enterprise Investment Scheme ("EIS") and the
