DIGITAL DELIVERY LAUNCHES UNIQUE DELIVERY AGENT; Introduces First Delivery Agent to Seamlessly...

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 2, 1995--Digital Delivery has unveiled a revolutionary new delivery agent and subscription management tool for Web, newsletter, magazine and publishers.

Through cutting-edge agent technology, Digital Delivery empowers electronic publishers to seamlessly deliver

their publications directly to subscribers' PCs via dial-up modems and the Internet. In addition to liberating subscribers from having to access on-line services, navigate menus and endure lengthy downloads, the company's new direct delivery process, which runs in the background, notifies subscribers when new content arrives and allows the material to be accessed instantly. More importantly, the new service gives publishers the power to efficiently deliver products and publications to all of their subscribers at the same time. Usage statistics and other subscriber information are the property of the publisher.

Digital Delivery's service boasts never-before-seen compatibility and control in a delivery agent, and the benefits are significantly clear. Designed to work with all publishing formats including HTML, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe PageMaker, Quark XPress(TM), Post Script, Microsoft Word, WordPerfect and Lotus Ami Pro, the agent includes both an offline HTML viewer and an Acrobat viewer that will preserve the original publishing format of each client's product including page layouts, colors, graphics and rich visual details. For added convenience, Digital Delivery is compatible with both Internet and dial-up modems, and does not require membership to online or Web services.

"Digital Delivery efficiently and simply delivers publications to all PC subscribers simultaneously, and allows publishers to maintain control of the look and feel and the feedback from those publications," says Mark Friedler, Director of Product Development at Digital Delivery. "We're confident that this technology is going to revolutionize electronic delivery."

Digital Delivery's built-in ratings and billing package system also tracks delivery and subscriber activities for publishers, and provides them with vital information, such as "last delivery," "last read," "delivery duration," demographic user profiles and delivery fees. This information can then be easily exported into virtually any database or spreadsheet program being used by the publisher.

Providing publishers with the benefits of fully-formatted publications, simultaneous delivery, controlled configuration, and significant subscriber tracking, Digital Delivery is sure to have considerable impact on the electronic publishing industry.

Founded in 1995, Digital Delivery specializes in the development and manufacture of electronic delivery systems. Based in New York, the company is an offshoot of Reach Networks, Inc., the leader in private online services.
