MEDIA JUKEBOX now provides QSound Labs’ Qmp3D™ sound technology for advanced 3D audio

Minneapolis, MN (September 13, 2000) J. River, a Digital Rights Management solution provider and developer of MEDIA JUKEBOX™, the world’s first universal media player, today announced an agreement with QSound Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSND) to offer the Qmp3D™ sound management plug-in to MEDIA JUKEBOX users.

Qmp3D works by “converting” audio to full 3D during playback. “Qmp3D vastly improves the quality of digital music,” said Jim Hillegass, CEO of J. River. “With this one plug-in, MEDIA JUKEBOX users can maximize their audio listening experience and get a bigger, more realistic sound from their speakers.”

Qmp3D creates a virtual surround sound field by stretching the sound beyond the physical location of the speakers. Qmp3D includes QBass, an adjustable bass boost enhancement feature, and QVerb, which lets users select stadium, club or cathedral listening environments.

"QSound is always looking for innovative new companies to co-market their Internet audio products," said Perry Longinotti, Business Development Manager, QSound Labs. "J. River's MEDIA JUKEBOX, a universal media player, is a perfect showcase for Qmp3D."

MEDIA JUKEBOX is the world’s first universal media player. It organizes and plays all the popular music formats, including mp3, Real Media, MusicEx, QuickTime, Audible, Microsoft Windows Media and LiquidAudio.  It has the highest user rating of jukebox software at CNet.com, and has received five-star reviews from mp3.com, ZDNet.com and Vitaminic.com.

MEDIA JUKEBOX 5.0 is available for free download from www.musicex.com.

The free Qmp3D demo is available at www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/plugins.html. A registered version of Qmp3D can be purchased for $10.95.
