MusicGiants, the leading distributor of high-definition entertainment into home theaters, has expanded its already extensive music content offerings with the signing of Image Entertainment, a leading independent licensee, producer and distributor of home entertainment including music, movies and concerts. This new addition brings over 200 additional of DRM-free music to the MusicGiants HD Media Store.
Image Entertainment’s subsidiary, Egami Media, digitally distributes a wide assortment of audio programming from labels including Relix Records, PS Classics, Billy Bob’s Texas, Levity Entertainment and from its own Image Music Group imprint. Image has sucessfully released audio companions to its library of live concert DVDs from artists like The Moody Blues, Phil Lesh and Friends, Mint Condition and Yanni while also helping to develop artists like Tamia, Jonah Smith and Billy Gilman.
“We are very excited to offer Image Entertainment’s unique variety of artists in high-definition,” says Scott Bahneman, CEO of MusicGiants. “The addition of their non-DRM content to our catalog means consumers can easily access and enjoy even more of our high-quality content, regardless of the platform.”
“As consumers embrace downloading music, greater demand for higher quality recordings is inevitable especially for those who don’t listen on a portable player,” said Burgess Wilson, Sr.VP Digital Operations of Image Entertainment. “We look forward to working with MusicGiants and to selling our library to their high-end customers who want to get the best performance out of their home theater and stereo equipment.”
MusicGiants’ use of the WMA lossless format provides up to seven times the sound quality of any other music service. It also offers Super HD downloads that play in Windows Media Player at rates of up to 11,000 kbps.
Offerings are available for download from MusicGiants. Album prices vary. Visit and access the MusicGiants HD Media Store through Windows Media Player 11 or at www.MusicGiants.com.
