Broadjam.com Enables Access to Radio Using Musicrypt's DMDS

September 11, 2006, Madison, Wisconsin - In the past, independent musicians would
have to buy huge quantities of bubble envelopes, then stuff them with CDs that took
hours to burn, then look up contact information, then print out labels, then weigh
the packages, then head to the post office where they would pay a hefty bill for
mailing.

It's been done this way for years. If you weren't with a major label and wanted to
get your music to radio stations - you had to do it.

Now there's a cheaper, secure, web-based delivery alternative.

Broadjam.com, one of the world's largest communities of independent music artists,
has launched a revolutionary new service - Broadjam Radio Deliveries. Powered by
Musicrypt's patented Digital Media Distribution System (DMDS), Broadjam Radio
Deliveries allows independent artists to deliver their music and promotional
materials directly to radio stations across North America. The deal with Musicrypt
Inc., the industry\'s leading and most secure digital music distribution company,
gives independent musicians the opportunity to reach radio stations in the same
manner as major label artists.

Broadjam Radio Deliveries allows Broadjam.com members to send broadcast quality
music, bios, pictures and other promotional materials directly to the desktops of
radio professionals and track when their material was delivered. The service
provides a far more effective, secure and cost-effective means of distributing music
and related promotional material than traditional mailing. Most important to the
independent musician, Broadjam Radio Deliveries provides security and accountability
thanks to DMDS's encryption, biometrics, and watermarking, ensuring that only the
intended recipient can access their work. The addition of Radio Deliveries to
Broadjam's existing suite of tools places further control into the hands of
independent artists.

\"Broadjam is very proud to provide this new promotional tool, and we've received an
immediate and positive response from our members,\" said Roy Elkins, founder and CEO
of Broadjam Inc. \"DMDS has set a new standard for secure media distribution to
radio professionals, and Broadjam is delighted to partner with an innovator like
Musicrypt to open such channels to indie musicians.\"

Currently the world's fastest growing community for independent artists, Broadjam
boasts a database of more than 250,000 songs from artists representing all 50 US
states and over 110 different countries. Musicrypt's DMDS has delivered thousands
of songs over from over 40 record labels to destinations which include radio
stations representing over 35 broadcast chains, making it the perfect resource for
Broadjam's rapidly growing membership of 60,000.

"Broadjam is leading the way in the online independent music space by offering this
service to their members," said John Heaven, President and CEO of Musicrypt. "We are
proud to work with Broadjam to enable tens of thousands of independent artists to
deliver their music to radio via our DMDS technology. Already one of the largest
and most respected music communities on the web, Broadjam has once again leveled the
playing field for the independent artist. The ability for an indie musician to
deliver their music to radio in the same manner as the majors is extremely
significant."

Broadjam.com has been integral in accelerating the careers of its many independent
artists like pop singer Jenna Drey, who was signed to Emanon Records distributed by
Universal Music, following three months on Broadjam's Top 10 charts. With the
addition of Radio Deliveries, Broadjam expects to significantly increase the
exposure and profile of its artists to radio, record labels and the music industry.

"The launch of Broadjam Radio Deliveries is a great day for the independent music
community," said Garry Wallace, a music industry business consultant who was
instrumental in aligning these two innovative companies. "This is a significant
breakthrough in access to commercial radio for independent artists."
