DIC Entertainment Launches New Online
Production Music Business, www.cuetunes.com
Unique Site Debuting March 2008 To Offer Quality, Cost Effective
Production Music To Television and Film Studios
BURBANK, Calif. (Billboard Publicity Wire via Business Wire EON) March 25, 2008 --
DIC Music, LLC, a subsidiary of global brand management company DIC
Entertainment (DIC), is launching a new online production music
business, www.cuetunes.com. The
announcement was made today by Deb Clark, Vice President of Royalty &
Music Publishing Administration for DIC.
The new venture will serve as a one-stop, royalty
free music source for film and television professionals,
independent film producers, instructors and/or students to purchase
quality, affordable production music for all premium media productions,
including station themes, news and commercial music, animation, live
action, home video, webisodes, demo reels, video games, student projects
and temp tracks.
“DIC owns literally thousands of music cues,
and cuetunes.com provides a vehicle to monetize the valuable asset,”
comments Clark. “One of our most important
goals is to make the user’s experience as
simple and enjoyable as possible by providing myriad searchable song
criteria and user-friendly customer service support through our
Preferred Patron Program.”
Utilizing a state-of-the-art search and delivery system that leverages
Counterpoint Systems‘ MusicSource Online
software and is customized according to the specifications of the
cuetunes.com staff, users will have an efficient way to search for and
select professional music cues by keywords or a broad range of genres,
styles and instrumentations at a reasonably priced, one-time fee for
both the publishing and master recording rights. Selected music tracks
may be managed by project, viewed by associates and purchased in MP3
and/or WAV formats for $21.95 (10 seconds or less) or $39.95 (greater
than 10 seconds) per track through PayPal (which accepts bank debit and
credit cards MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover). Through the
Preferred Patron Program, approved registered users have the option to “test-drive”
(download and evaluate) selected tracks for up to 14 days before buying.
The launch serves as another step in DIC’s
overall new media business strategy and follows the Company’s
recent announcement of the launch of its first online video channel, www.kewlcartoons.com,
dedicated to new and classic cartoons for families and children.
DIC Entertainment, a fully-integrated global brand management company,
is dedicated to creating, developing, producing, distributing, marketing
and merchandising family-based intellectual properties.

rights management and royalty processing software solutions for music
