Wraptor, PureVolume and the Vans Warped Tour Align to Make History

Beverly Hills, Calif., July 9 /PRNewswire/ - WRAPTOR, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Free Radical Networks LLC, announced a four year agreement with the Vans Warped Tour to produce an annual compilation CD exclusively featuring unsigned artists, and delivered in the secure .wrap multi-media file format.

The collection will include 21 "wrapped" songs and marks the first time in history that a musical endeavor will be delivered entirely via the groundbreaking .wrap format.

Available in both CD and Digital download, each compilation will include a bonus feature -- a free trial version of the WraptorLAB. This proprietary software creates .wrap files and is the only tool necessary for any independent artist to begin promoting, distributing, and selling their own music online.

With the help of PureVolume, the free CD will be distributed on the Vans Warped Tour beginning this year. "We view this as a great opportunity to introduce the powerful promotion and sales tools that Wraptor and PureVolume provide to the independent artist community," remarked Brett Woitunski, President and CEO of Unborn Media Inc, the (privately owned) parent of PureVolume.com.

"Wraptor, Vans, and PureVolume wanted to join forces to provide a powerful vehicle for promoting talented new artists not yet represented," said Free Radical Networks president and CEO, Benjamin Osgood. "Along with providing a voice for the independent artist, Wraptor seeks to align itself with viable industry resources that share in the mission of supporting the independents."

About Wraptor

WRAPTOR™ was founded in the spring of 2003 to address the growing need for a legitimate and more compelling alternative to illegal file-sharing networks. Using proprietary MediaForge technology, Wraptor's .wrap multi-media file format offers such features as artist photos, lyrics, biographies, tour dates, and more while also allowing users to preview a song in its entirety before expiring. A completely secure digital media package, the .wrap is an inexpensive, efficient and effective full-service solution to promote, distribute and sell any and all music online. Wraptor's legal P2P client is currently being developed by several of the original developers of Morpheus and is set for release this Summer 2004. For more information, please visit Wraptor.com.
