(Top40 Charts/ Schwartz Communications, Inc.) - INTENT MediaWorks, the leading provider of technology for the distribution of licensed digital media content and advertising via the Internet, today announced it has reached an agreement with KOCH Entertainment to release the entire available KOCH Entertainment catalog across P2P networks and the Internet. Consumers will be able to legally and easily download files from KOCH's extensive collection of songs and videos. INTENT is the first company to enable providers of digital entertainment to effectively deliver licensed media via the Internet across multiple distribution channels in a legal, profitable and consumer friendly manner. INTENT's digital platform will make KOCH's extensive music and video catalog available to the millions of people using open P2P applications. Additionally, KOCH files packaged by INTENT can be syndicated to web sites, social networks and blogs. 'INTENT makes it possible for KOCH to connect with music and video consumers on their terms,' said Michael Koch, CEO of KOCH Entertainment. 'Over the past two decades, we have developed, acquired and produced a vast library of recorded music and video. INTENT will be instrumental in helping us harness the viral nature of the Internet to spread and monetize our entertainment resources.' With operations encompassing both record and video labels, KOCH Entertainment is the market leader among independent companies in both the United States and Canada. KOCH operates its own record label and also has interests in other independent record companies. KOCH Records had the largest number of Billboard charting albums among independents during all of the last six years and is America's largest independently distributed record label. 'KOCH Entertainment has done an impressive job of attracting established talent and emerging artists, and INTENT will benefit both parties,' said Les Ottolenghi, CEO and co-founder of INTENT MediaWorks. 'For established talent, INTENT eliminates issues related to licensing and content control. At the same time, INTENT makes it possible for emerging independent artists to boost exposure and reach niche audiences. INTENT will help KOCH significantly enhance revenue by taking advantage of today's open, viral channels to distribute the thousands of files from its music and video collection.'
