"All our development work of the last few years is complete and our focus now is on revenue generation. Our growing database of young clients, through the Passion Project and Disorder magazine and the fact that they can listen to and buy music and video content from one place, whether they have an iOS, Android or Microsoft device, gives us an advantage over many other similar platforms. Our joint venture with Black Cactus Holdings strengthens this advantage as it has strong foothold in the global media distribution business."
