New MediaBox VS-2601 launched for multi-format video streaming;
Adjudged “Killer App of the Month” by Open Sound Systems.

SILICON VALLEY, Ca. (Feb. 15, 2002) – iTuner Networks Corporation today announced a new breakthrough in video streaming with MediaBox VS-2601. Adjudged “Killer Application of the Month” by Open Sound Systems (www.opensound.com), the MediaBox VS-2601 offers ‘today’s best price/performance solution for video streaming,’ according to iTuner. “We have simplified video streaming by integrating multiple encoders and servers into a single robust device. This has enabled us to cut device and administration costs significantly,” said Raluca Neacsu, MediaBox Product Manager.

According to iTuner, MediaBox is the only range of streaming devices built on the Linux OS- the industry standard for open platform architecture. “Its platform-independence enables the MediaBox VS-2601 to serve thousands of  RealAudio, RealVideo, MP3,  Vorbis and QTSS streams while allowing simultaneous encoding in MP3, Vorbis and RealAudio formats. At the same time, its browser-based administration makes for easy and profitable deployment of video applications over the Internet.

The new launch follows close upon the heels of the widely acclaimed MediaBox AS product family, which has already found its niche among leading radio stations. “The MediaBox VS-2601 underlines iTuner’s capability to provide a competitive turnkey solution to Television channels in need of high-speed network infrastructure and proven technical expertise,” said Neacsu.
